My son was about the same age. He was driving to work at his part time job at a local ISP early in the morning when his vehicle rolled over due to an unanticipated road hazard.

The cop said it was just another case of inexperienced driver error.

Once the car came to a rest, my son turned off the ignition and climbed out the window. He was standing by the side of the road when the police arrived and asked where the driver's body might be.

The difference in outcomes is a direct consequence of my having made sure my son had a safe car with titanium ribs in the roof. Apparantly Edwards didn't care what his kid was driving and it ended up killing him.

The lesson is parents should become more involved in their children's lives.

I'm glad your son wasn't hurt, but to suggest Edwards did not care enough about his own child is disgusting.

Any parent that would give a jeep to an inexperienced driver needs to have their head examined. I am saving my 91 volvo 240 for my soon to be driver
