alright, now here's a stupid question:

anyone ever noticed that no matter what, when people go off road, they will always hit that one lone utility pole or tree on the side of the road?

what's up with that? seriously ... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)


you think that people unconsciously aim for whatever obstacle is the largest in their view?

in racing school, they taught us that your car will always go where you look, even in a spin. because your hands follow where you look which makes the car follow where your hands go ...

Because all of the other goofs who lost control in that same spot managed to luckly not hit anyone else, missed the pole and just ended up stuck in a ditch. It's only the really bad ones that make the news.

You rarely see this in the news...

"Car full of drunken teenager’s loose control at high speed, de-bead two tires, crunch fender and require tow home. No injuries, but three of the four passengers did spill their beers. Dad grounds driver for month. Film at eleven"

Kinda like how Danica Patrick "ran over a pit crew member"

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) News doesn't say " pit crew member steps in front of Danica Patrick as she enters pit area " NOOOO Danica ran the guy down, backed up and pulled forward 3-4 times, got out of the car and kicked him in the nuts then pissed on his face.
