This is certainly true. And in my case, because I had put quite a lot or repairs into my car (and new tires) it would have been impossible for me to take the settlement and go out and buy an equal replacement. If I would have just let them write off my car, I would have lost huge, all that work down the drain for starters.
But I don't know if I can get on board with "faking" and injury. One of the first things I was asked by the insurance is, were you hurt. I was not, I have felt no health effects even though my car was hit pretty hard.
