I don't love my vehicles enough to risk my life or the lives of others to save it. I'd be ashamed of myself if I ever got to the point to do that. Although, I wonder what would happen if someone's vehicle was severely damaged in a situation like this. Would the city/county/whatever pay for the damages incurred, or would it be totally up the person's insurance to cover it? Would most insurances cover that?
