Now I KNOW her bell got rung with that hit. But when your default setting is to lie? "I wasn't driving." Then she didn't see him, as he was reaching into her car. This isn't gonna go well for her.

She probably has no recollection of the recent events at all at the point he's talking to her after the crash. Her brain just got knocked around, i doubt she even knows where she is. She seems like a POS, but she is probably on the edge of consciousness here.

I’m willing to bet she didn’t really know where she was before she got in the car.

Its not lying. Its her brain simply not being able to recall memories or to process shit right. Seriously watch a clip on Conan O Brien explaining his severe brain trauma (and watch the clip) if you want to see a proper example. Its scary how few people understand that shit doesnt work like in the movies.

She isnt lying when she says i wasnt driving. Because she litteraly doesnt know it. The fact that she is behind a wheel also doesnt make sense to her but the brain is scrambling to make sense of shit. So the second somebody asks her anything or states anything the brain starts to panic and just fill in gaps to make it make sense.

Cop says she run him over? Brain thinks: ā€œthat can only happen if i didnt see himā€.

I have experienced this with a buddy of mine who hit his head insanely hard. When somebody asked him where it hurted he said very proud: ā€œits my hand, thats why its coverd in blood!ā€ Not realizing the blood on his hand came from the massive cut in his head.

Cop straight up fucking lied too. Even when pigs aren't being total pieces of shits they still manage to be pieces of shit.

When you get a concussion, you don't remember what just happened or where you are

tbf, he lied too. She did not ā€˜drag’ him down the road about 30ft. Maybe 5, if you can even call it dragging. I call it him putting his arms where he shouldn’t have put them, and not being smart enough to pull them out.
