Vehicle drivers in Conquest, ... is it really that hard to stop and pick passengers up so they don't have to walk 1000 ****ing miles across these maps at the beginning of the game ? I mean c'mon ... seriously.
I know it is pointless to complain about it, ... the same as nobody doing revives, but sometimes you just have to vent. I mean on most maps the vehicles are literally driving right past the hoards that get dropped off, it's really just not that hard to pick people up. I do it. There's a "Get in" message on the rose for that purpose.

My friend and I were in his truck the other day and we were hit by a driver who was: 1) A minor - 17 years old 2) Incredibly intoxicated (visibly high on Xanax or similar + very drunk), 3) Driving a stolen vehicle. The driver was arrested after attempting to flee on foot.
Here are some additional relevant circumstances/pieces of information:
- The accident occurred in Texas
- There is Dash cam footage of the entire wreck before, during and after from a local firefighter who happened to be waiting on a red light perpendicular to the direction of the two cars involved in the accident
- There was a man in a car that had been following the drunk minor for 10 minutes with the 911 dispatcher on the phone trying to get them to βsend an officer to pull this guy over before he hurts someone.β
- Police never ended up trying to pull the minor over, but were somehow magically at the scene of the accident within 30 seconds.
- My friend did not have insurance on the vehicle he was driving since his coverage had lapsed in November (though on Texas this usually shouldnβt made a difference as long as youβre not at fault for the accident - no citation was issued to him).
- The drunk minor had Fred Loya insurance, and I donβt know this for a fact, but I assume that it was not for the vehicle he was driving at the time of the accident
- The stolen vehicle the minor was driving belonged to the drunk minorβs Dadβs GF (the two later showed up at the scene and the girlfriend told police that she wanted to press charges)
- The truck My friend is driving was towed to a lot because it is not drivable, But we are not certain that itβs totaled either.
- Nobody is disputing whose fault the wreck was - everyone is in clear agreement that this kid - who should have been arrested minutes earlier had police listened to the caller - was lit off of something in conjunction with alcohol, and that he ran his car into my friends truck and knocked the whole axle loose and the drive train was dragging on the ground
What do we do? Does he wait for this kidβs insurance to pay for his truck to get fixed, or is he supposed to get the vehicle out now? It doesnβt drive. Thereβs also a concern about whether or not this kids insurance will cover the damages since the vehicle was stolen, and if the kid or his parents will actually be able to pay for the damages. FYI - The truck is most likely totaled, if I had to guess. Does my friend file a civil suit against the kid even if he canβt pay? Should he go for a Hail Mary attempt to sue the city and/or police department for not responding to the manβs call when there were - as it became very clear - more than enough cops in the area to respond? They showed up at the scene of the accident in 30 seconds and they were seven o

Other vehicles insurance says my dashcam footage doesnβt matter and Iβm at fault. Other driver caused $4000 in bumper repairs and my insurance says Iβm not at fault.
I was turning left and after this accident, all she kept yelling was she had the right of way while the vehicle was stopped. Her insurance agent said she doesnβt even have to look at the dashcam footage because any vehicle entering an intersection assumes risk. Does this mean I can just crash in people turning in front of me when Iβm stopped?
