Backing up an off-ramp was one scam. You’d be exiting the freeway and there’d be this car seemingly waiting for traffic to move on. When you got close, say about ten feet or so the car would suddenly backup into you. The driver would get out accusing you of ramming his car. Cop shows up and yep, looked like you rear-ended the guys car.
No this isn’t an intentionally racist statement, but was the other car filled with illegal aliens? This kind of scam goes back decades. With “ALL” of the “Victims” needing medical attention,i.e a quick cash settlement. They have the scam set up with a crooked lawyer, a doctor who gets a cut of the proceeds, chiropracters, etc.
