It is interesting telemetry,and can be used to prove or disprove any theory on the incident. I find it very difficult to think a driver would crash on purpose.

How sad. Anything for an edge,I guess. It really does come down to the driver in the end to just say no. You may not have a job tomorrow..but you will still have your own integrity. :?
