Thinking of lying your way out of a traffic accident you caused? Beware of your car's "black box" that records 20 seconds before and after the accident, and some cars with built-in cameras, like Tesla, to say nothing about cameras on the street. Lying to the police can be a crime, and lying to force the other insurer will not only get you sued, but it's felony insurance fraud. If you conspired with a witness then it's a conspiracy to defraud, a separate felony.
