      Car-sharing services should install "exhaust" sensors. The initial costs would later be recouped by savings on such problems.

      Car-sharing services should install "exhaust" sensors. The initial costs would later be recouped by savings on such problems. Believe me, they don't really want that. There's such a system of fines and their collection that these idiots are very profitable for car-sharing companies. The guy smashed one car but ended up liable for two (which only benefits the car-sharing company). And they'll repair that car and sell it as if it hadn't been crashed or repainted.
