<p>Hi Ericsmom, it’s true I’ve never heard it called a carjacking in the media, but around here if you are pulled over, killed, and your car taken, it’s called a carjacking. It’s usually random, but having a nice car/SUV can probably make the odds go up that one will be targeted. In Carson’s case they got her ATM card too. I guess I took the liberty in calling it that, but whatever the case it makes you worry.
In my D’s case the police did nothing to make her feel safer, in fact they scared the daylights out of her. I found it all a little strange, and thought it best that I post her experience here for other Elon parents/kids to read about. Thanks kaysmom for acknowedging that it is common practice that the lawyers swoop in for their slice of the pie.</p>
