Sometimes, family members cover for each other. This is especially true in cases of traffic accidents, where the police may be able to identify the vehicle involved in the crime but not the driver. In one case, as seen in this highly graphic television segment showing a drunk driver plowing through an old man, the driver?s son admits he falsely ?confessed? to the crime to prevent police from testing his father?s blood-alcohol level. The police officer told me that in cases of drunk, unlicensed, or uninsured drivers, it ?often happened? that a slightly more sympathetic substitute?someone who has insurance, a license, or is at least sober?would ?confess in the driver?s place. An adopted daughter stood in for her father after a deadly accident; in another case, because witnesses took down the license plate of the car involved in a drunk-driving hit-and-run, the deputy director of the Xuchang County Forestry Bureau sent his wife to appear as his substitute.
