Terrible, especially the other car following the mother home.

I'd think the last place you'd want to go following a scary road rage incident is back to your place of residence.

Husband: Mom shot teaching daughter to drive may not live

Quote:
Robert Meyers told reporters that Tammy Meyers, 44, was driving home after letting her daughter take the wheel of the family's green Buick Park Avenue in a nearby school parking lot when a silver four-door sedan that had been following them passed and hit the brakes.

Tammy Meyers steered around the car and continued driving home. Meyers said she sent their youngest daughter into the house before the shooting. He described the girl as emotionally distraught.

Meyers said their adult son emerged from their house and fired several shots with a handgun at the fleeing car. He told his father there were three people in the car.

So sad; SO senseless. Maybe the family will donate her organs when they remove her from life support. It will not bring her back, but the many people it can help might help in their grief. She is a RN, I bet she would be for it.

This story has so much miss-information that it's ridicules. First she was not teaching her daughter to drive. She was driving her daughter home when she got into an accident with another vehicle which resulted in damage to the passenger door of her car. She was driving, not her daughter. She then proceeded to continue to drive home. That is hit and run.

When she got home, she had her daughter go into the house and got her son to come out with a gun. There was a gun battle and she ended up getting shot in the head.

OK I admit I don't really know what happened, but there is obviously so much more to this story then is being reported. If you drive responsibly and politely and don't cause problems for other drivers, they probably won't follow you home and try to kill you. At least that is my experience.

Yeah, because someone passing a truck too slowly is such a good reason to kill another person. Also, the article didn't mention anything about that.

I didn't see any of that info, but it certainly sheds more light if true. Can you post the link to the source? I would like to read the whole article.

Exactly. I'm surprised they aren't calling this a "school shooting" since the story begins in a school parking lot.
