Let's not spread misinformation just because it helps a good cause.
It's not misinformation. It's explaining that if you want to off someone, proving murder with a car is much more difficult. You have reason to be driving a car. You have less reason to be brandishing a gun.
Yeah, but if you run over your ex while they're out for their morning jog, for example, the police will absolutely be after you.
