Dummy! Wreck a $100,000 plus vehicle to attempt to stop someone from stealing an Amazon box of $10 Godzilla Birthday plates and matching napkins.

Dumb!!

And who provided the Ring cam video?!

I'm Glad the Porch Pirates got what they got Coming to the Them. But to use a 120k Big Beautiful Cybertruck is CRAZY ! A BAZOOKA would have been Better Choice, and Cheaper !!!!

very stupid thing to do with your own car let alone a rented $100,000 car. if this is real he will be paying for all damages all for a box of tissue paper nice one! The thief probably has a case against him that was use of deadly force. or Attempted Man Slauter.
Yup, he just gave that thief a payday. He can go after Turo, the renter, and the CT owner. I was in a jury selection once for a case like this. I told the judge I'm bias and the thief should go to jail. I was kicked off the jury selection.

Curious about the vetting process Turo does for renters. Is the renter financially equiped to handle this damage? Probably not. The owner is going to be paying for this, mark my words. Mark em!

Hope it was worth the massive headaches for the extra few bucks.

People suck. I don't trust them outside my vehicle. Can't imagine trusting them with anything I own.

If this is real (very doubtful) it might be worth it to stop a porch pirate. They should be legal to shoot on sight.

We are assuming the driver was driving. Maybe they were using FSD and the AI has learned this is how you handle porch pirates.
So, when does the cybernetic vehicle get a laser death ray??

Wait. Why did the CT not slam on the brakes to prevent the accident?
He didn't need to brake. CT was on the inside line. Camry was on the outside line. When Camry hit the tree it torqued the rear into the CT. Nothing he could do.

License plate won't do much in criminal court. You can find who it's registered to, but if there's 3 or 5 adults at that address, they all plead the 5th, government has to prove who the driver and thief were. Also, good chance it's stolen/has stolen plates on it.
A car (or house) used in a crime can be taken.

Yes, the driver could have not cut so close and controlled the vehicle. They're the one who gunned it into the corner.

The something they could have done was control their following distance.

Being in jail doesn't change the liability tho.

Put out an APB - whoever really owns the car probably wants it back. But it will have a new plate on it after a short chase with the home owner and being witnessed in a crime.

That's no excuse for violence or failing to report. Besides, stealing a car or tooling around with stolen plates is also a crime. Ones with bigger penalties than stealing a package.

Agreed. If it were me, I would just follow that car really close and activate the dashcam to record his license plate. I love my truck too much to intentionally crash it.
There's a saying, mainly for politicians, Its easy to spend other peoples money ! Wasn't his truck to worry about !

Dang, I don't think the CT even had to be involved, the thief ran into the tree all by themselves. Right?
looks like that, took the turn wide and was distracted by the truck coming up on his Ass. He flew off into the tree by himself.
