There were a couple of reasons for making the changes," Gao said. "The heads of Marvel specifically didn’t want to do a mob hit. I think it was because it didn't feel like it vibed with the show."
The emergency blood transfusion is the important part. If they wanted to skip the mob hit the car wreck works just as well.

Exactly. Gao's excuse was that the mob hit would have "required too much precious time" and too much backstory.
Ok, forget the mob hit, a random mugging/disgruntled client/even a car accident would work just fine. Problem solved. Gao either was too stupid to think of a way to tweak one aspect of origin story, or it was always her intention to completely change it.
Both are equally unforgivable.

This. They could have made it a situation where she is dying and Bruce is given no other choice but to give her a transfusion to save her life, and then use that as a point of conflict between them going forward in the series. Bruce regrets giving her the same burden he has been saddled with, knowing she just wanted a “normal life”, and Jennifer resents him for turning her into a hulk (even though it was to save her life) without her permission. Instead the writers didn’t want to show their perfect female lead in a position of powerlessness, so they did her origin in the dumbest way possible.
