When they get caught is it considered a "Loss for Toyota — Safety Group" as opposed to their now imfamous "Wins for Toyota — Safety Group", their boasting about for saving millions of dollars by delaying safety regulations, avoiding defect investigations and slowing down other industry requirements.

Seriously, is anyone aside from the Toyota Propaganda Department surprised by this?

I like how "Evidence Shows Toyota Willfully Destroyed And Hid Incriminating Safety Information" and "Toyota Urges Judge To Throw Out Sudden Acceleration Lawsuits As Baseless" appear on the same screen.

Baseless....due to lack of incriminating safety information??

Funny, Toyota is looking more and more like any other US company by putting profits first and foremost!

The "evidence" in question is Biller's statements. Read the article.
