The following are actual statements found on Insurance Forms where car
drivers attempted to summarize the details of an accident in the fewest
possible words. Here's what they came out with:
Coming home I drove into the wrong house and collided with a tree I
don't have.
The other car collided with mine without giving warning of its
intention.
I thought my window was down, but I found it was up when I put my head
through it.
I collided with a stationary truck coming the other way.
A truck backed through my windshield into my wife's face.
The guy was all over the road. I had to swerve a number of times before
I hit him.
I pulled away from the side of the road, glanced at my mother-in-law
and headed over the embankment.

In an attempt to kill a fly I drove into a telephone pole.
I had been shopping for plants all day and was on my way home. As I
reached an intersection a hedge sprang up, obscuring my vision and
I did not see the other car.

had an accident.
I was on the way to the doctor with rear end trouble when my universal

road when I struck him.

I saw a slow moving, sad faced old gentleman as he bounced off the roof
of my car.
The indirect cause of the accident was a little guy in a small car with
a big mouth.

ditch by some stray cows.
