Darwin Award Contest - Canadian ST - 05-30-2009
A Lady Ran Over A Mattress On The Highway
And Decided Not To Worry And Kept Driving..
The Ensuing Jumble Finally Whipped Around Enough to
Tear A Hole In The Fuel Tank.
The Subsequent Lack Of Fuel Is What Finally
Brought Her Vehicle To It's Knee's.
She Had Still Managed To Drive 30 More Miles
With A 60 Pound Tangle of Stuff Wrapped
Around Her Driveshaft.
She Had It Towed To Her Dealership And Complained
That The Vehicle Had A " Sort Of Shimmy "
When She Was Driving At High Speeds.
Below Are The Photo's Of What They
Found At Her Dealership....................
The Last Photo Is By Far The Best.
" Sort Of A Shimmy" I'll Bet It Did !

By virtue of the fact it has a driveshaft in the first place my guess it was a pick 'em up truck plus I never underestimate how stupid people are.
