My son has been driving on a temporary license about 6months. He frequently is not focused and has come close to near accident when not paying attention. Repeatedly, I ask him what is going on with him. He only says I don't know I was not paying attention.

Obviously, I'm quite concerned since this behavior continues to be present without any remedy. Please offer suggestions, your experiences with this situation. Thanks to all!

Hi new moon,

My only suggestion as a Mom myself would be to not let him drive. It's not safe for him or anyone else with him or sharing the streets. It just might save his or another persons life.
I'm almost certain a doctor would have his license suspeneded for this.

Best Of LUCK!!!!
