A devious driver hopes that treacherous and icy conditions will disguise his deliberate attempts to make an innocent motorist crash into his car. Digital information embedded in a photo catches out a chancer who claims to have lost valuable jewellery at a funeral, and an athlete’s claim for devastating injuries caused by a pothole is scuppered when he is caught on camera ripping it up at the rugby pitch.
