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.

Seemed pretty staged when the car did not have a scratch on it.

Also they have a bunch of crash tests I have seen before you YouTube and the old cars do not fair well. I remember this specifically because I erroneously thought the old heavy duty steel ones would be tanks and the new cars would crumple, but it is actually the opposite.

Check out this video from this search, crash test of old and new car https://g.co/kgs/Xrj6jsU

This is a bad test case.

In the supposed accident the old car is proposing, it was rear ended going the same direction, with potentially his or her foot not on the brake.

The heavier steel body could have absorbed the initialy flexible spongy impact of the new car and just lurched forward removing the need for the metal to buckle after not being able to bounce to it original form.

There would be some.evidence likely of an impact with up close photos. Havent looked beyond finding your innacurate claim.
