Only in America - in Texas
I guess in the land of opportunity and free enterprise, we can expect things like this to happen...
I found this tidbit at the Republican-American website:
"The seemingly innocuous policy change is intended to make it harder for telemarketers to drum up business for their clients, who include trial lawyers, chiropractors and auto-body shops. Telemarketers line up daily at police stations to buy crash reports from the previous day. Then often pretending to represent victims' insurers, they call the injured who were not at fault and tell them they must get medical treatment or risk having their claim denied. The telemarketers also steer the injured to specific trial lawyers and body shops."
