Of course your driving had absolutely nothing to do with it..i.e..following too closely, going too fast to take evasive action, etc...

Here we go with the "I've been picked on and you owe me" crap. That kind of crap remark really needs to stay out of here.

Ease of Driving
The ease with which one can get a driver's license in this country is startling.....driving is a priviledge, not a right and it would be better to treat it as such.....better driver's ed, etc. I believe the costs would be recouped in insurance savings, etc.

What's the difference? Seems a bit of dishonesty and fraud either way.

So let me get this straight. You are comparing someone who removes a mod to their car that may have caused engine damage before taking their car to the dealer for repair under warranty to someone who fakes an injury in hopes they will be able to win a law suit, so that they can collect a financial windfall?

Theft is theft. The intentions are the same. More people are convicted for small value theft, having more money in their pockets than the value of the item.

I believe that's what I said. Both are cases of lying, deceit, fraud, etc. in order to receive monies for what they shouldn't.

Sorry about the damage. You are lucky in that he had insurance. Hope you get the car repaired soon.
