National Transportation Safety Board study - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

Brewmaniac · 01-17-2006, 02:00 PM

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 not surprised to find in 38 of the 50 states the recorded last words of drivers in 61.2 percent of fatal crashes were, "Oh S H I T !"

Only the states of Indiana (south of US 40), North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Kentucky, Arkansas, Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi, Louisiana, Missouri and Texas were different, where 89.3 percent of the final words were: "Hold my beer, I'm gonna try somethin."
