And what can i co about it happening this time??

You need to contact this woman and forbid her from allowing this to occur again. If your son had caused a wreck and hurt someone, the injured party might come after you and your insurance company to pay damages. Whose vehicle is he driving anyway? You and your child's other parent need to tell your son that he is forbidden from driving until you or the State say otherwise.

You may need to contact teh Police about this woman's actions.
