    worry about it when the cops come to your door if they do & start driving carefully as that could have been a school kid.

    My parents are different from yours. My parents said if i get any ticket or accient they will be grouding me till i die. If i receive a phone call or a mail about this. Then you guys should know that i'm dead. But let's hope that the person didn't reported me. I'm praying to god that the person didn't report me.

    don't worry about it. as long as they don't see your face and no car chase ensues where you're pulled out of the vehicle, you get nothin'. unless they can prove, without a doubt, that were the one driving,you're off the hook. i've used this a few times to get out of stuff :D

    give your self some driving time, obeying all the laws you can, to learn the way cops and the law work with drivers. then you can start to get away with stuff. i've been driving six years and have the habits of the cops around here down pat. my average speed is about 80 miles an hour on 55 mph roads, has been for 2 years, and i have yet to get a ticket, lol. as long as you don't run any stop signs/lights and know good places to hide your car should a cop light up on you, you're gold.

    I would go along with everything Auslander says EXCEPT the 80 mph in a 55 zone...that really depends where you live; I wouldn't take the chance until you've been driving long enough to know the habits in your area.

    ddp and others are right: it's pointless to worry about something you can't change. Stay as calm as you can and wait.
