When the insurance adjuster arrived and the owner started to spin his take about why he had driven out onto the mud flats at low tide, the adjuster stopped him and stated "there is no clause in your policy for stupidity not to worry he was covered" so I find it highly unlikely that an insurance company is going to spend time and money to determine if your golf cart was going 22 mph and not 19 when the accident occurred.
And yet, there are people in this thread who think the police are going to do a forensic analysis of an accident and check the "seal" on the 10mm bolt to see if it's been adjusted...

It reminds me of the old TV show CHiPs, where they would "recreate" an accident to see who was at fault... Total fantasy...
