Attorney David Douglas of Tustin, California recently submitted the following to Counsel Quest:
The following are actual statements found on insurance forms where car drivers attempted to summarize the details of their accident in the fewest words possible.
- 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 any warning of its intentions.
- I thought the window was down, but I found out it was up when I put my head through it.
- A truck backed through my windshield and into my wife's face.
- A pedestrian hit me and went under my car.
- 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, glaced at my mother-in-law, and headed over an embankment.
- In my attempt to kill a fly, I drove into a telephone poll.
- 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.
- I had been driving for 40 years when I fell asleep at the wheel and had an accident.
- The pedestrian had no idea which way to run, so I ran over him.
- I was on my way to the doctor with rear end trouble when my universal joint gave way causing me to have an accident.
- As I approached an intersection a sign suddenly appeared in a place where no stop sign had ever appeared before. I was unable to stop in time to avoid the accident.
- To avoid hitting the bumper of the car in front, I struck the pedestrian.
- My car was legally parked as it backed into the other vehicle.
- I told the police that I was not injured, but upon removing my hat, found that I had a fractured skull.
- 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.
- I was thrown from my car as it left the road. I was later found in a ditch by some stray cows.
- The telephone pole was approaching. I was attempting to swerve out of its way when it struck the front of my car.
