Black Boxes

The National Transportation Safety Board recently divulged they had
"covertly" funded a project with the U.S. automakers for the past 5
years, whereby the automakers were installing black-box voice
recorders in 4-wheel drive pickup trucks and SUV's in an effort to
determine in fatal accidents, the circumstances in the last 15
seconds before the crash.

They were surprised to find in 48 of the 50 states the recorded
last words of drivers in 61.2 percent of fatal crashes were, "Oh
****!"

Only Wisconsin and the Upper Peninsula of Michigan were different,
where 89.3 percent of the final words were: "Hold my beer, I'm gonna
try something."
