The National Transportation Safety Board recently divulged they
had covertly funded a project with U.S. auto makers for the past
five years, whereby the auto makers were installing black box
voice recorders in four-wheel drive pickup trucks and SUV's in an
effort to determine, in fatal accidents, the circumstances in the
last moments before the crash.
They were not surprised to find in 44 of the 50 states the
recorded last words of drivers in 61.2 percent of fatal crashes
were, "Oh, Crap!"
But the states of Oklahoma, Tennessee, Texas, Arkansas, Alabama
and Kentucky were different, where 89.3 percent of the final words
were, "Hold my beer, I'm gonna try somethin."
