I've been trying to imagine how someone could cause a car accident (targeted person; single car/non-impact; and fatal) and make it look like an accident. It's my understanding that police/experts are pretty good at reconstructing and determining the cause of accidents. They check for faulty auto parts, etc.
In my scenario, this accident-causing person has some power/clout (say he's a government agent of some kind) so he would have access to the person's schedule, a semi, and people to do the deed.
So, would this work, on six lane highway, 70 mph speed limit: semi, in middle lane, swerves into target's lane (right lane), not enough for impact, but enough so that, if the timing is right, the target swerves away to avoid collision and runs through the guard rail and into cement wall on side of highway...
There is a problem of witnesses who would have seen the semi swerve into the lane, possibly. Guy with clout can't control traffic patterns...
Besides that (if there were no witnesses) would the police/experts have to rule the case an accident, or....what am I missing?
Basically I want the outcome of the investigation to be "accident" even if not fully explainable. A little bit of unfounded suspicion because... how could someone orchestrate such a thing? (powerful person not yet known to be powerful.)
Thanks for any input!
