Plus in this video where they reproduced the accident there was a full chevron pattern so the argument is flawed&amp;#x2F;wrong anyway: &lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www.youtube.com&amp;#x2F;watch?v=6QCF8tVqM3I&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www.youtube.com&amp;#x2F;watch?v=6QCF8tVqM3I&lt;/a&gt;</text></comment>
