lol, bullshit. I would think that bending would be uncommon....but possible. If it started bending and then broke (which I suppose would be possible) you would probably see signs of failure around where it broke, not a sharp, clean edge.

I've had an experience talking to a cop about car details (in my case, an alignment). He went on telling me -.5 degree camber would chew up my tires in 500 miles or less. When I called bullshit, he started going on and on and I believe he compared my Firebird to his Crown Vic and a go kart

Moral of the story: Not every cop knows everything about cars, even though they think they do.

I would definitely have someone inspect it again, and I would request that Officer Dipshit would not be present.
