Black Box (joke)

THE BLACK BOX
The National Transportation Safety Board recently divulged they had
covertly funded a project with U.S. auto makers for the past five years,
whereby the auto makers were installing black boxes in four wheel drive
pick-up 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, !"
Only the states of Nebraska, Wyoming, North Dakota and South Dakota were
different, where 89.3 percent of the final words were:
"Hold my beer and watch this!"

Most ODBII cars already record sensor readings for a certain amount of time that can be retrieved after an accident. Search on the web and you'll find cases where such data was used to prove fault.

The Gov't is talking about putting a blackbox in every new car. The courts are going to use them to prove you was speeding or you a bad driver and try to make things a bigger mess. They got them in most big truck now!!!!

Hmm... 50 - 47 = 3, right?
