4. The driver made no obvious abrupt steering corrections or even the slightest attempt to avoid the crash once diverted off the solid highway surface (no steering input & no braking input). It perfectly glided off at the pre-determined spot with wheels pointed directly towards the water without braking.
5. The driver previously knew the exact water depth of the shallow lake/marsh in that particular spot, and knew it would not totally submerge the car (thereby minimizing damage).
6. There was no other traffic on either of the parallel highways (the Bugatti driver highway & the bogus cameramen highway). Both driver & cameramen knew exactly what time of day and on what particular day of the week (perhaps a weekend without commuter traffic) had the least possible chance of other conflicting traffic. It was probably very early morning (just after sunrize) because there is a lone fisherman nearby the crash scene trying to get an early jump on the fish.
7. The audio commentary by the cameramen filming the incident is totally bogus, as they initially say "that's my next car". Then, when asked what kind of car it is by his buddy, he say's "I don't know, I think it's a Lamborghini". That's total B.S.; if a guy ever says "that's my next car", he knows damn well what it is!!!
8. The captured video(s) were immediately posted on the internet as a "complete package set", complete with the tow truck recovery video. All videos were probably filmed by the exact same cameramen on location (crash video & recovery video).
9. It is obvious the "Recovery Video" is post-edited to minimize duration of internet playback time. Further, everyone in the video (including Law Enforcement personnel) is standing safely away from the tow truck near the edge of the highway and not in the adjacent muddy roadside. Only the cameraman filming the Recovery Video is standing in the mud and is allowed close proximity access to get the video shots. Most tow truck driver's do not like rubber-necker's nearby during vehicle recovery operations for safety sake in case a cable breaks or other possible mishap.
10. The video's include a direct website "link" to their exotic repair shop and show additional pictures of the actor-wrecked Ferrari Enzo for additional promotion publicity/advertising.
Undoubtedly; the whole thing was "pre-planned" for sheer publicity, just like the Balloon Boy incident!!! I sincerely hope the insurance company figures out this blatant fraud and denies any attempted claims.
In fact, their motive is probably three(3)-fold:
(1): They get free world-wide internet "publicity" for their exotic car repair business (complete with website "link").
(2): The insurance company pays them a huge settlement claim for any legitimate vehicle damage and any "falsely fabricated" vehicle damage (as determined by their own in-house repair shop inflated bogus repair estimate).
(3): They obviously plan on fixing the Bugatti themselves at their own exotic repair shop at a significant reduced wholesale cost on any parts and pocketing the huge insurance profits.
It's a total SCAM from every angle!!! If I knew which company they insured their Bugatti with, then I would totally rat on them with hopes their insurance company denies any claims and then further counter-sues them for attempted insurance fraud.
