Dame Siobhain McDonagh was driving along a residential street when a man on a moped stopped right in front her, forcing her to slam on the breaks.
Moped drivers are targeting lone women and mothers on school runs in "cash for crash" scams by deliberately crashing into vehicles and making false insurance claims. Rogue garages encourage this by offering bonuses for accident claims, with many claimants being fast-food delivery drivers. A Mail investigation uncovered this network, highlighting how these scams are fueled by garages and offer easy money for drivers, while victims face higher insurance premiums.
