Same scenario however....at-fault driver paid two people to lie to the officer when he arrived on scene.
Sadly, when an accident occurs, most people are shook up and not thinking clearly. Then comes the police and perhaps an ambulance and the victim is forced to try and think clearly and relay the facts as well as they can to the police. Unless a police officer directly witnesses the accident, they are a third party to it. Which means they have to rely on the stories of the people who were involved. This sets up a scenario where there's a very good chance somebody is going to lie........

Liars liars, pants on fire.
