What is the name of your state? NM
My 16-year-old hit someone's gate in my car and, like a teenage-idiot, drove off. A sheriff's officer arrived at my home because someone reported it. I called my son and he came immediately home. The office chewed him out pretty good (he and I decided it was a good idea to scare my son for this stunt). He took registration and insurance info, and said he would mail him the tickets. He was going to mail tickets for speeding, reckless driving, property damage and leaving the scene of an accident. This was over two weeks ago and I've waited every day for the tickets to arrive. How long should I wait?
(I already took my son's license and driving privileges away, and he personally apologized hat in hand to the people whose gate he hit. They didn't want him in trouble and were very kind to him. We're punishing him and he's been a very good student and good kid--but he deserves whatever tickets are coming I suppose.)
