The National Transportation Safety Board recently divulged they
had covertly funded a project with the US auto makers for the past
five years, whereby the auto makers were installing black boxes in
four-wheel drive pickup trucks in an effort to determine, in fatal
accidents, the circumstances in the last 15 seconds before the
crash. They were surprised to find in 47 of the 50 states the last
words of drivers in 61.2 percent of fatal crashes were, "Oh, Shit!"
Only the states of South Carolina, West Virginia and Arkansas
were different, where over 89.3 percent of the final words were:
"Hold my beer and watch this!"
