NTSB Black box trial
Just recieved this from a friend:
The National Transportation Safety Board recently divulged they had covertly funded a project with the Canadian auto makers for the past five years, whereby the auto makers were installing black box voice recorders in four-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 that in most of the towns the recorded last words of drivers in 61.2 percent of fatal crashes were, "Oh,Shit !
Only the places like Colborne, Brighton, Picton and Trenton were different, where 89.3 percent of the final words were:
"Hold my beer, I'm gonna try somethin."

They were equally surprised to find that in Australia the recorded last words of drivers in nearly all of fatal crashes were, "Look at that chick!"
