- A new list of bizarre accident claims
has revealed a world of invisible vehicles, hyperactive shrubbery and benevolent
cows.
-
- The list, compiled by the British Vehicle
Rental and Leasing Association, brings together UK drivers' most creative
excuses for automotive shunts and crunches that were everybody's fault
but their own.
-
- Some of the most unusual include:
-
- "I was on my way to the doctor with
rear end trouble when my universal joint gave way, causing me to have an
accident."
-
- "I pulled away from the side of
the road, glanced at my mother-in-law and headed over the embankment."
-
- "An invisible car came out of nowhere,
struck my car and vanished."
-
- "As I reached an intersection, a
hedge sprang up, obscuring my vision, and I did not see the other car."
-
- "I thought my window was down, but
I found out it was up when I put my head through it."
-
- "I collided with a stationary truck
coming the other way."
-
- "I was thrown from my car as it
left the road, and was later found in a ditch by some stray cows."
-
- "The guy was all over the road.
I had to swerve a number of times before I hit him."
-
- "The other car collided with mine
without giving warning of its intentions."
-
- "The indirect cause of the accident
was little guy in a small car with a big mouth."
