If the driver was a an illegal without a license or insurance, I hope he whipped that driver’s backside but good.
Your car is destroyed, they have no insurance and then they won’t show up to court, your own insurance has to cover the expenses, and then there is your daughter who had been hurt.
Given the article's dogged avoidance of identifying anyone involved, I'd surmise that there's a fairly high probability that an Illegal Alien was involved here.
(What if "the father" were the Illegal? Or both "the driver" and "the father"?)
