Big german TV production company with succesful primetime action series used rented cars for their stunts. Different people from the team rented them with full insurance, returned them crashed. They did this until every car rent in the city stopped offering insurance without retention.

Do they change the number plates? If I were a car rental company and I copped onto this happening I'd be calling my legal team.

This isn't bound to one production company. Close to every car video prod does this if there's expected damage.
