The fact that he was drunk at the time means his mom could have had him ARRESTED (the involvement of Stiles dad). She could use that event in a custody suit. It also could have damaged his law enforcement career. Maybe he thought if he stayed, he wouldn't be able to control a potential drinking problem. Therefore, maybe he thought he was capable of hurting him again.

In regards to his mother, as Paul said, the severity of the event really plays no part in this. As a mother, she has a natural fear that Scott would blame her for not having a relationship with his father. The Nogitsune was trying to use that natural fear against her. This isn't rocket science. I think the accident was a big deal, but it's something that shouldn't have been kept a secret for so long. I mean it's been years since this happened. Why did it take him so long to tell Scott that he made a bad decision while drunk? Maybe my above comments weren't very clear, but I am mad about the fact that this was a secret in the first place. This was built up to be something big and to me it fell flat because even Scott brushed this off like it was nothing and proceeded to dislike his dad because he wasn't there throughout the years and not because of the secret.
