To be fair, it is amazing how people make stuff up about car accidents. They will always say it was the other person's fault.

I was once a passenger in which a kid ran out from behind some cars and in front of the car. Luckily, we were going slowly and braked so although this kid hit the bonnet, he was fine. But as we were dealing with things, a man ran out from the butcher's shop and said we'd been going at 70 mph, when actually it was more like 20, and maybe 2 mph at the point of impact.

What is it about cars that means people make stuff up?

Killer South Dakota Attorney General Ousted and Banned From Office

Jason Ravnsborg, the South Dakota attorney general who ran over and killed a man on a highway in 2020, was convicted in an impeachment trial by state lawmakers on Tuesday, effectively ending his career.

The South Dakota Senate voted 24-9 to affirm count one against Ravnsborg, meeting the two-thirds majority needed to convict him and remove him from office. He was also convicted on the second count, 31-2, and two 33-0 votes barred him from ever holding office again.

Two of the 35 senators, one Democrat and one Republican, did not attend the trial. Republicans hold a 32-3 majority in the state Senate.

Instead of offering major revelations at the trial, prosecutors slammed Ravnsborg as a liar who fibbed about what happened on the night of the fatal crash—and again in the following months.

“We’ve heard better lies from 5-year-olds,” said prosecutor Mark Vargo.
