Keep persevering, you will figure it out eventually.

The Op reminds me of a friend of mine, who decided she didn't want to squish a fluffy wuffy animal and it would be far better if she swerved into a stone bridge.

The good news was the fluffy critter lived, the bad news she killed herself and her two kids.

There are a couple of holes in your story that make me suspect that your aren't exactly Agatha Christie when it comes to depicting imaginary deaths:

- How do you know what this friend of yours was thinking in the moments before she died?

- And how do you know that the supposed animal survived? Did it stick around to give a statement to the police?

You'd just see that run off simples.

Easy. In the 0.2 seconds between swerving to avoid the creature and ploughing into the bridge of fiery death, she screams "oh my god, squirrel", or what have you, into the dashcam that DKLS never mentioned (which also has a microphone, of course.) Then, in the sideways footage as the dashcam continues to run after the accident, the squirrel is seen hopping away into a nearby bush while stopping to nibble an acorn.

Simple. Just got to think like a conspiracy theorist, then it all becomes clear.

I would assume that there were witnesses to the crash who gave statements to the fact that the car swerved to avoid an animal and saw the animal survive.

Or is that too obvious an answer?

No conspiracy theories needed.
