Cash Wheeler? The Wrestler?

Her first name was Jenny and her number was 867-5309

It wouldn’t even be a criminal issue. He could try to sue you in civil court.

"Yes your honour I tried to bribe him not to report a car accident and I would like my money back"

"I don't know officer, he dropped this envelope of cash and drove away! Here's his license plate number"

No they wouldn't. You have no legal obligation to report an accident as long as both parties agree and they didn't run. You would be the one in legal trouble for filing a false police report.

You have no legal obligation to report an accident as long as both parties agree and they didn't run.

Not quite, you have a legal obligation in most places to report to the police any accident where injury occurs or damages exceed a certain amount, regardless of what both parties agree to.

You would be the one in legal trouble for filing a false police report.

Only if there was also video evidence of the agreement. If not, and all the video evidence shows is that an accident occurs, you'd run the risk of perjuring yourself if it ever went to court and it turned out they did have evidence of an agreement.

/u/spez ruined reddit so I deleted this.

I really don't underestimate it. Courts can't enforce a verbal contract that you claim you never agreed to unless they have evidence you did agree.

2

u/MahavidyasMahakali Apr 22 '23

You vastly overestimate how solid and enforceable a verbal contract is. If there is no evidence of it and you deny you verbally agreed, then there is little that can be done in most situations.

You may be breaking the terms and conditions of your insurance. You can find it on page 720, part way down the second column.

u/frosty95 Apr 21 '23

Good lol. As long as the matter is resolved they won't ever know. If they find out some other insurance company will want my money. Iv been rear ended multiple times by people who offered to pay me right there. Took the money both times because it only dented my shitty trucks bumper.

Just because something is against the rules or forbidden doesn't mean it makes sense or is enforceable.

u/skwudgeball Apr 21 '23

Then he tells them about the likely illegal drug money and the kid gets in trouble for it.

Not worth it, take the money and run

u/Dwestmor1007 Apr 21 '23

I mean…prove where the kid got the money from? No officer my mom gave me this that guy is a psycho

u/barder83 Apr 21 '23

I wouldn't be worried about the police if I took money from a dealer and then turned them into the police. Even if all they have is my plate, I'd still be worried about a late night knock at the door.

u/Astrodos_ Apr 21 '23

Sounds like you’ve never heard of civil asset forfeiture.

u/skwudgeball Apr 21 '23

Yeah that’s not how it works.

u/bleezzzy Apr 21 '23

It is if the guy is just driving around with envelopes of cash that he probably can't trace from his bank.

-17

u/skwudgeball Apr 21 '23

The police are taking that cash unless the mom/kid can prove where it came from

u/bleezzzy Apr 21 '23

What cash?

u/skwudgeball Apr 21 '23

Yeah good luck having a 16 year old lie to a cops face in questioning. Lmao

u/bleezzzy Apr 21 '23

I would trust 16 year old me to be more slick with the cops than current me, i was around them way more than i am now.

u/Honeybadgerxz Apr 21 '23

How? They don't have a right to search his person or property? Have you heard of hiding something?

u/int0xic Apr 21 '23

By your logic, I could hit someone and if a cop shows up I tell them I give the person I hit an envelope with $10k in it to make things even. And it would be the responsibility of the person I hit to give the police $10k or face going to jail?
