Men arguing over crash hit by oncoming car
MINAMIASHIGARA, Kanagawa -- An old man has died and another remains fighting for his life in a hospital Sunday after they were struck by a car while standing in the middle of the road arguing about an earlier crash, police said.
Killed in the tragedy was 72-year-old Kazuo Ando, who had earlier slammed his car into the vehicle belonging to 75-year-old Naoe Saito, who had crashed his vehicle into a concrete wall on the side of the road.
Saito is currently hospitalized after yet another driver, Takashi Akiyama, slammed into the two old men as they argued over who was responsible for the damage to their vehicles in their crash.
Police said the accidents occurred just after a bend in a road in Minamiashigara.
Snowfall reduced visibility and made the roads slippery, causing Saito to hit the wall and start the pile-up.

So, slappy, you're saying that both times my parked car got sideswiped it was by a woman?
Maybe, maybe not...but, considering you're a woman, you may have parked it in the middle of the street.
I was wondering if it'd been my fault. I knew you'd figure it out.
Don't look angry - he feeds on it.....

Of course, mins crashing into stuff is part of the y chromosome, poor things - like lemmings they are, since their sexual destiny is all about crashing into .....er....things....
again and again and again - uncanny, isn't it?
Ironically, I once crashed into a parked car...but I got ran off the road by an ambulance.
I also used to frequently crash into snowbanks and empty trash cans when I was high school...but that was on purpose.
And from what I understand, I was crashed on my head quite a few times as a baby...which explains alot today.
The only accident I got into in Boston during the four years I lived there was right where Commonwealth avenue turns left at Brighton Ave., and starts heading up the hill. This woman in front of me got confused and stopped right in the middle of the intersection. I was fishing around the floor for a Burger King ice tea that had fallen onto my new books and Wham! Nailed her right in the tail.
I was driving my 1970 smurf blue Ford Maverick with black racing stripe. A true urban assault vehicle if there ever was one.
So, cjhsa, were you also putting on your makeup?? Hee, hee, heee.
I have to admit I was distracted and of course at fault. Nothing ever came of it though, I only scratched her bumper as I wasn't going very fast.
I remember this very clearly because I went to the bookstore to get new books for the new semester. I stopped at BK on the way back home and got a chicken sandwich and an iced tea. The iced tea was sweetened and I was mad about that, so I set it on the seat. When I came up to that intersection and started to turn left the damn thing went on the floor and all over my new books. Stupid of me.
One time I did hit another car (and it was parked). I was 17 and driving a delivery van in a very tight parking lot.
Other than that, not once. I have been hit once, from behind, by a guy in a big ass truck.
I was riding to work yesterday when I observed a female driver cut right in front of a pickup truck causing him to have to drive on to the shoulder to avoid hitting her. This evidently angered the driver enough that he hung his arm out his window and flipped the woman off.
"Man, that guy is stupid" I thought to myself. I ALWAYS smile nicely and wave in a sheepish manner whenever a female does anything to me in traffic and here's why:
I drive 48 miles each way every day to work, that's 96 miles each day. Of these, 16 miles each way is bumper-to-bumper. Most of the bumper-to-bumper is on an 8 lane highway so if you just look at
the 7 lanes I am not in, that means I pass something like a new car every 40 feet per lane. That's 7 cars every 40 feet for 32 miles. That works out to be 982 cars every mile, or 31,424 cars. Even though
the rest of the 32 miles is not bumper to bumper, I figure I pass at least another 4000 cars. That brings the number to something like 36,000 cars I pass every day. Statistically, half of these are driven by females, that's 18,000.
In any given group of females 1 in 28 has PMS. That's 642.
According to Cosmopolitan, 70% describe their love life as dissatisfying or unrewarding. That's 449.
According to the National Institute of Health, 22% of all females have seriously considered suicide or homicide. That's 98.
And 34% describe men as their biggest problem. That's 33.
According to the National Rifle Association 5% of all females carry weapons and this number is increasing.
That means that EVERY SINGLE DAY, I drive past at least one female that has a lousy love life, thinks men are her biggest problem, has seriously considered suicide or homicide, has PMS, and is armed.
Flip one off?....... I think not.
Shoot first, then flip them off.
