BUT OFFICER.....
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
When police ask people involved in auto collisions to describe the events
|
|||
|
|
in their own words, the descriptions often make it clear the accidents were at
|
|||
|
|
least mysteriously unavoidable and at most acts of God. Some actual examples
|
|||
|
|
from police files:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
"Coming home, I drove into the wrong house and collided with a tree I
|
|||
|
|
didn't have."
|
|||
|
|
"The other car collided with mine without giving warning of it's
|
|||
|
|
intentions."
|
|||
|
|
"I thought my window was down but found it was up when I put my hand
|
|||
|
|
throught it."
|
|||
|
|
"I collided with a stationary truck coming the other way."
|
|||
|
|
"A truck backed through my windshield into my wife's face."
|
|||
|
|
"A pedestrian hit me and went under my car."
|
|||
|
|
"The guy was all over the road. I had to swerve a number of times
|
|||
|
|
before I hit him."
|
|||
|
|
"I pulled away from the side fo the road, glanced at my mother-in-law and
|
|||
|
|
headed over the embankment."
|
|||
|
|
"The gentleman behind me struck me on the backside. He then went to rest
|
|||
|
|
in the bush with just his rear end showing."
|
|||
|
|
"In my attempt to kill a fly I drove into a telephone pole."
|
|||
|
|
"I thought I could squeeze between two trucks when my car became squashed."
|
|||
|
|
"I had been shopping for plants all day and was on ny way home. As I
|
|||
|
|
reached an intersection a hedge sprang up obscuring my vision. I did not
|
|||
|
|
see the other car."
|
|||
|
|
"I had been driving my car for 40 years when I fell asleep at the wheel
|
|||
|
|
and had the accident."
|
|||
|
|
"The accident occurred when I wqas attempting to bring ny car out of a
|
|||
|
|
skid by steering it into another vehicle."
|
|||
|
|
"The other car attempted to cut in front of me so I, with my right
|
|||
|
|
front bumper, removed his left rear tail light."
|
|||
|
|
"I had been learning to drive with power steering. I turned the wheel to
|
|||
|
|
what I thought was enough and found myself in a different direction going
|
|||
|
|
the opposite way."
|
|||
|
|
"I was backing my car out of the driveway in the usual manner when it was
|
|||
|
|
struck by the other car in the same place it had been struck several
|
|||
|
|
times before."
|
|||
|
|
"I was taking my canary to the hospital. It got loose in the car and
|
|||
|
|
flew out the window. The next thing I saw was his rear end and there was
|
|||
|
|
a crash."
|
|||
|
|
"I was on my way to the doctor with rear end trouble when my universal
|
|||
|
|
joint gave way causing me to have and accident."
|
|||
|
|
"As I approached the intersection, a stop sign suddenly appeared in a
|
|||
|
|
place where no stop sign had ever appeared before. I was unable to stop
|
|||
|
|
in time to avoid the accident."
|
|||
|
|
"To avoid hitting the bumper of the car in front I struck the pedestrian."
|
|||
|
|
"My car was legally parked as it backed into the other vehicle."
|
|||
|
|
"An invisible car came out of nowhere, struck my vehicle and vanished."
|
|||
|
|
"I told the police that I was not injured but on removing my hat I found
|
|||
|
|
that I had fractured my skull."
|
|||
|
|
"I was sure that old fellow would never make it to the other side of the
|
|||
|
|
roadway when I struck him."
|
|||
|
|
"When I saw I could not avoid a collision I stepped on the gas and crashed
|
|||
|
|
into the other car."
|
|||
|
|
"The pedestrian had no idea which direction to go so I ran over him."
