I once calculated the relative odds of winning the lottery against being injured in a road accident: can’t remember the result, but I think it suggested that you’d probably be better not to drive more than a couple of hundred yards to buy a ticket…
My husband used to have a bright orange Renault LeCar (R5). One bright, sunny day, he was home, when he heard a strange sound. He looked out, and a U-Haul was backing right up into the LeCar! He went up to the guy and yelled, “You’re backing into my car!” The other guy said, "Oh, I didn’t see it! My husband responded, “You didn’t see a bright freaking orange car in an EMPTY PARKING LOT?”
“Hee Haw? Really Hee Haw?… From Born Under A Bad SignA great blues song by Albert King made famous by Cream and all you got is Hee Haw? Wow…”.

Gloom, despair, and agony on meDeep, dark depression, excessive miseryIf it weren’t for bad luck, I’d have no luck at allGloom, despair, and agony on me
We figured she was rich, loaded to the hiltAnd we figured she had class like the Vanderbilts’Cause we had heard for years how she was so well rearedHow was we to know they meant the way she was built

K.C. The most common explanation for running into a school bus: “I didn’t see it.” .thirty-five long, eight feet wide, ten feet high, orange and white, lots of flashing and blinking and strobing lights AND invisible
It’s quite simple, actually. Thor was looking at the tree. Just like today when drivers stare at a pole or post, that’s what they hit. See? Nothing changed in hundreds-millions of years.
Being a long term snowmobiler, I can’t tell you the number of times a rider traveled on a marked trail through the woods and was struck by one of those “attack trees”…

Sounds like my kinda luck, played the lotto for a few years not even a single small win. Hey but I’m happy, just not rich ;-)

It has nothing to do with luck.Everybody knows that trees have a strong magnetic attraction for wheels.

It is hard to see anything, much less a bus, when all you do, while driving, is look at your phone.

I don’t think poor Thor can see anything right now…

I’m not sure why, but this Rod Stewart hit from 1965 comes to mind..It seems to have relevance…
