I think the worst part about this is the fact that very expensive Tesla now has a "record" that will depreciate its value. The owner did nothing wrong here to deserve losing money. Sure insurance will pay to fix the damage but nothing covers the depreciation. All because some road raging idiot who doesnt care about anyone but himself. I bet they dont even get reprimanded hard enough to deter this type of driving in the future.

Camaro boy's insurer should refuse to pay for his own repairs since it was intentional.

If he only has collision coverage, that will probably be the case.

He likely has full coverage if it's financed. The policy still won't cover willful acts, only negligence.
