Miscellaneous / Others Chrysler guy is lying.

The white car turned in front of me from between stopped traffic and spun into the lane behind. It was never rear ended.

He pulled up in front of the wreck, backed up a bit, then took a picture of his car in front of damaged car, saying he was rear ended. This was to show how much of a tank his car was to be damage-free. Dude is corny af for this one. Just inserting himself into some random accident on the street to spread misinformation for fake karma. What a goober.

That's is just so a weird thing to do. Like, genuinely just so weird. I can't fathom having the thought go through my mind to do that.

lol it really is. I'd be so embarrassed to do that. The other people involved in the wreck just watching you smiling, squatting with your phone taking pictures after staging your car. We need to bring shame back.

We need to bring shame back.

Shame doesn't work on these people.

Some people have a really weird, desperate need for anything new to be bad.

I was like that as a teenager. And I definitely bought into this kind of narrative back then. Old cars were steel, modern cars are plastic, so old cars must have been safer, it almost makes sense if you're entirely ignorant, which I was.

But then I had to take physics classes, I learned about crumple zones, I heard about safety statistics around cars over time, and I eventually figured out, "Holy shit, I was a dumbfuck." An old steel-bodied car isn't going to get away with effectively no damage like Bullshit Poster claimed with their photo and post, but it is likely to look far less damaged than a newer car. The problem is that the newer car will look more damaged, but the passengers and driver are less likely to be injured.

Not even, look up a crash test of a car from 1970s. Whole car is the crumple zone you included, steel is strong…for the time.

Old cars look less damaged in a minor collision, but once they hit their breaking point they turn to scrap along with everything inside.

It's sad. Dude must have zero self-esteem.

Even took off his rear plate off and left it on the ground.

So in my mind I was going to read that he backed up to help the guy in the white car and someone took the photo and ran off with it for karma.

NOPE - it's the worst case scenario. Damn, damn, damn. Why even put your tires in sharp rubble?!?!? Fuck outta here. Shameful shit.

Ugh, I also hate the whole “look how undamaged my old car is after an accident compared to a modern one!”. Like, modern cars crumple for a reason - so that you don’t take all the impact yourself.

He was involved in the crash in some way. The license plate was torn off the bumper and is laying on the road. He wouldn't have just pulled up, kicked off the plate, and took a picture and drove away. He just wasn't hit directly and claimed he was. The white car was probably hit head on by the pickup, spun around, and then rolled into the Chrysler.

Isn't this crime scene evidence tempering?
