Staged auto collisions are on the rise. Here’s how to identify them:

1️⃣ "Swoop and squat" scam: One scammer cuts off an accomplice, who then slams on the brakes in front of you and then claims you were at fault for rear-ending them.
💡 How to help prevent it: Always keep plenty of distance between you and the car ahead.

2️⃣ "Drive down" scam: The scammer waves you out of your parking spot and then accelerates into you and claims the collision was your fault.
💡 How to help prevent it: Be cautious and patient when exiting a parking spot - wait until the coast is clear before exiting a spot. And, when possible, reverse into parking spots - this will help when it's time to leave.

3️⃣ "Bullet left turn" scam: The scammer waves you through an intersection and then drives into you and claims you are at fault.
💡 How to help prevent it: Be wary of accepting the right of way when making a left turn and ensure you're turning safely - with plenty of space between you and oncoming vehicles.
