that sucks!

You know if you'd drive a little more careful... You could have patched it if it were not in the sidewall!

Gesh.... don't you know!

Beats the boat nails I picked up in the Nissan two weeks ago.

a couple of years ago here in South Florida, someone was killed on I-95 from a piece of rebar that bounced up of the road, through the winshield and through the girls chest! Hows that for bad luck??

I am just glad the handles on those pliers did not somehow find my eye sockets:eek: That sure woulda hurt!





Jered, I tried to plug the holes:rolleyes: , but they wouldn't stay? And all the "fix-a-flat" oozed out.:eek: Maybe next time I should try the "green slime" and duct tape??;)

About 1983 I was following a guy I work with on I-285 around Atlanta - doing about 70 when he swirved all the sudden...revealing a nice rusty old shovel dead square in the middle of my lane. The handle was facing me...lined up just perfect. There was a truck on one side of me, car on the other...couldn't swirve much..and sure couldn't stop - so all I could do was square up the shovel in the middle and roll right over it. Some part of the back of my car hit the metal end of the shovel and I could see it in my rear view mirror after a few secs doing flips WAYYYYY up in the air! My heart dropped into my stomach as I watched it start to come down while trying to watch the guy in front of me as brake lights were everywhere. I just knew someone was going to get hurt! The shovel ended up hitting about 2 feet below the top of the trailer of an 18 wheeler that was 5-6 cars behind me - sticking the wooden handle all the way in right up to the metal shovel! Nobody actually stopped...and I don't even know if the truck driver knew it at the time.

People really should be mre careful with where they leave their gardening equipment lying about. I bet that left one extremely puzzled trucker. I bet no one even beleives him when he tells peple about the day he found that shovel sticking out of his truck trailer.
