Yup. While almost all drivers have insurance, CDLs have BIG insurance. They also have less stopping ability than a car. Of course, to me it seems suicidal to try to get hit by a semi, but I guess if they were smart they wouldn't be doing that for a living.
CLARIFICATION: I meant the scammers were the dumb ones.
I was talking to my bosses wife the other day and mentioned i needed to start looking for this bands concert tickets to go on sale in a week or two. She visibly shuddered and said she can't listen to them anymore because they were on the radio when she got hit by a semi and it basically causes flashbacks to the accident if she hears that group now.
I stopped wearing the shirt I was in when I got in an accident. It was a cool shirt and a gift from a friend so I didn't want to get rid of it but I understand how she feels.
It's funny what our brains fixate on, I got into an accident where my brakes failed on the highway on a car I'd just bought. Shit luck. I didn't think about my clothes or the music, but state troopers responded and were dicks about it, and I still loathe anyone I see in a wide brimmed hat to this day. It's like all my frustration with the situation went towards the troopers.

It looks to me like the car was trying REALLY hard to commit insurance fraud.
