If anything can go wrong, it will.Murphy was an optimist.Murphys LawOReillys Corollary

Coming home, I drove into the wrong house and collided with a tree I dont have.

A pedestrian hit me and went under my car.

How The Accident Happened...

An invisible car came out of nowhere, struck my vehicle, and vanished.

The indirect cause of this accident was a little guy in a small car with a big mouth.


The telephone pole was approaching fast. I was attempting to swerve out of its path when it struck my front.

The pedestrian had no idea which direction to go so I ran him over.


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 of the road, glanced at my mother-in-law and headed over the embankment.
