BENT_8, get her to a GP for a psychologist referral (should be covered by medicare). She may have anxiety, PTSD, etc.

As for your son, a reasonable rule is no being passenger while unlicensed. By the time he is licensed, he wont want to be passenger with a bit of luck.

Cheers, i wish it was that easy, i put that to her a month after it happened when i first noticed the change, she wont have a bar of it, it seems to have given her real anxiety problems and she refuses to speak about it.

I wish she would, she definately needs it.

We had to come back through the hills from a tournament recently and when i looked over at her she was white as a ghost with the exception of her finger tips which were bright red as a result of gripping the edge of the seat so tightly.
I was barely moving but she was petrified.

As for the son, ironically, had he got off his **** and sat his 'L' test when he was first able to, he would have had his 'P's and his own car this weekend.
As it is he has only done 30 odd hours of the required 75 with only 3 months until he can sit his 'P's.
All of a sudden he's hassling me to get more hours in...kids.

If she won't see anyone, maybe give her this book:

Crash Course - A self-healing guide to auto accident trauma and recovery - Diane Poole Heller

I don't know if its any good, but my wife suggested it having got it when our niece was involved in an accident.
