  • Go buy a lottery ticket, lady!

    Word is that this happened on I95. Woman driver walked away. The pucker would have sucked my underwear up so deep I'd need a team of butt surgeons to remove them from my ass after that...

            On the positive side, she got a free sheet of plywood. (Ya gotta look on the bright side......). Seriously, glad she's OK and whoever secured the load should be gelded.

              Never made a mistake in your life, Dan? If the boy-scout-failure did it on purpose, I'd agree - but honestly I'm getting a lot tired of gross retaliation for minor accidents.... and yeah, I'm a lawyer who chases ambulances....

                Wow! That is a really wide breakdown lane, especially for a concrete barrier divided highway!

                    Minor accidents? Would she have to die, before you thought it was major?

                      That right there is the "anomaly." If you dwell on stuff like that and let it become a part of you, we'd all be too scared to get into the car and make a trip to the grocery store.

                        That reads more like insurance defense lawyer reasoning. Most of the pirate lawyers want to inflate every minor scratch and bobble into something that ought to be "punished" with jury awards bigger than the Somali gross national product.

                        I'm guessing Mr. Plywood Flyer has minimum SR-22 liability coverage and is "judgment proof". . . maybe the lady will get a new windshield (which is better than the ZERO compensation I got the last time some hopped-up, illegal "guest worker" mope crashed into my old pickup . . . . .)

                          Wouldn't it have to be a spectacular death? Ordinary death is SO passe'.

                            Yeah but it doesn't look like a new sheet . . . .

                            Reckless endangerment for sure.

                            It does remind me of the time in the long distant past when I bought a sheet of some sort of plasticized 1/4" thick Masonite to reline a mobile home bath (college student housing) . . . I had the idea that "we" (my conspirator and I ) could hold the 4'x8' sheet on the top of my '69 Pontiac Grand Prix SJ for the ten mile trip from the lumber yard (none of that fru-fru indoor Lowes/Home Depot stuff back then, BTW).

                            We did have a safety cord . . .one tiny bit of twine that looped through the hardtop.

                            I pulled out and punched it . . . The Masonite tried to go Wright Brothers on us and about ripped my arm off.

                            While we never lost the sheet, the stupid 5 mph trip made our arms hurt for a week. And there were innumerable moments when the Masonite wanted to slip the surly bonds of Earth (with apologies to John Gillespie Magee Jr.)

                            Ah yes, the insane confluence of youth, ignorance and inexperience . . . .

                              Shoot..........I am scared to go INTO the grocery store. Coming out poorer is only half of the fear, the other "shoppers" make my bunny slippers want to run for cover!
