why some people are lower than a snake's belly????

The second story happened to my uncle’s friends. They are Russians too. By that time, they were newcomers and did not know much about local people, laws, and basically anything. Anything that could happen to them. One day their young daughter was walking on the street. She was alone. While she was walking, one crazy driver ran her over. It was pretty bad, but there were no major injuries. I mean no bones were broken. She got many bruises and deep scratches. Driver was very scared. He walked her home and begged parents not to call police. Those people were shocked. They looked at the girl. There was nothing serious. They were happy that their only child was alive. They were very generous and did not report about what happened. For the next month or a little longer, the driver was visiting their house every day. He was not just visiting; each time he came, he brought candy, chocolate, candy, cakes… anything to please the girl. Everything seemed fine. Everyone, parents and girl forgave that driver. They even started to like him. That was not right. When I heard what happened after, I was shocked. Not only shocked… I started to hate the driver. The reason why he used to come to their house with candy was not to please the girl and “earn” her forgiveness. On the contrary, he went there to check if she still has bruises and scratches. A little later than a month, when there was obviously nothing, that driver went to the police office. He claimed against the girl. In his claim he wrote something about vandalism. In other words, he told police officers that he saw that girl damaging his car on purpose. The damage was not severe. There was a crack on the bumper, broken front lights, and the hood bas dented. Two month after the accident happened, that people got a bill. It was over 2,000 euro. When they went to the police, they could not prove anything. There wore no bruises or scratches. Those poor people had to pay that freak for the “damage”.
