Woman causes crash - again...

Women should just stay off the road.
BOISE, Idaho (AP) -- A man transporting his wife's severed head in a pickup truck collided with an oncoming car, killing a woman and her 4-year-old daughter, police said. The impact sent the head flying onto the road.

A Boise police officer was driving behind Alofa Time's truck on a busy road when he noticed the man's erratic driving and then watched him slam into the car, police spokeswoman Lynn Hightower said.

Time, 51, who was not injured, told officers he was involved his wife's death, investigators said.

After searching Time's house in Nampa, police found the decapitated body of 47-year-old Theresa N. Time in a car inside the garage, authorities said. She likely had been dead for several hours, Nampa Police Lt. LeRoy Forsman said.

An autopsy was scheduled next week to determine Theresa Time's cause of death, Canyon County Coroner Vicki DeGeus-Morris said.

Time was being held on two counts of second-degree murder in the deaths of Samantha Nina Murphy, 36, of Boise, and her daughter Jae Lynne Grimes. Murphy's other daughter was injured and was in stable condition at a Boise hospital.

"It was one of the more horrific and complex crime scenes on memory," Hightower said. "A woman and her child killed in a crash, and a severed head from an earlier homicide: It's nothing short of bizarre and tragic."

Honestly, if wimin were more sensible on the road, like not allowing their severed heads to be so distracting, there'd be a lot less accidents.

What about the ones with no history of accidents, citations, no distractions of note when driving and, in fact, one of the safer cars on the market? Can they be on the roads?

Besides, it's not as if the crash stated in the article was in any way caused by a woman, so you kids and your jumping to conclusions and arguments......you must chill. I have hidden your keys.

No, we're having fun at the expense of dead people we don't know. You're assuming we're all sexists.

Ah, but had this of all threads caused such an uproar that the Mods became embroiled....well, I've never actually had reason to stand up and say "I believe what you're doing to poor [insert name here] is WRONG!" and give 'em the finger. Not that I'm looking forward to this, just....we only live once. Usually.

The age-old debate of gender differences in the driving realm aren't based on figures -- it used to be based simply off the fact that most women, in older cars of the 50's and earlier, just didn't learn how to drive. Some because it was too difficult (until they started putting the gear shift up by the steering wheel), some because they didn't have time, but the effect is all the same -- since that time, we've been watching men puff up their chests and proudly state "Despite proven figures otherwise, men are better drivers than women!"

And I say, best not to get into this pissing match.

We get all the perks. But we also have to take lower-paying, soul-sucking jobs because the goddamn adventure course used the bullshit rape excuse.

I find myself most irritated with old people on the road as well as people with christian stickers and such displayed all over their car. Do they drive horribly so people will pay attention to them and notice how religious they are?

Perhaps it's just coincidence but I have been seeing a pattern in several different states.

Sure is.

The woman drives erratically and the man behind her has to slam the brakes and he's the one who gets in an accident.

Insurance Company only look into who's car got totalled, no who caused it. :D


PS: Joking on the woman causes accident thing. We all know cellphones are the real culprit.

Hey man, hey. You people can blame cell phones for car crashes OR brain cancer, but you can NOT have both. That's just not fair to us "Don't fuck with your radio and you won't hit people" types, 'cause that's literally the only fallback we have.

I wanted to be the event coordinator/safety coach for an adventure course in the area. Unfortunately, because most of the shifts are for overnight parties, especially over the summer, they turned me down with the excuse of "We never know if something of the nature of a sexual assault could occur" and hired somebody with absolutely no experience, while I've been doing things like that for years.

Women aren't the cause of crashes. Cell phones aren't the cause of crashes. Your radio isn't the cause of crashes. Bad driving is the cause of crashes. Cell phones and radios can cause some people to drive badly. Some women drive badly. But you can't tell me that a (stereotypical) woman going slowly and trying not to hit anything because she doesn't want to mess up her nails is a worse driver than a (stereotypical) guy going 80 in a 55 zone with the radio on loud, paying more attention to not spilling his beer than to driving.

My personal observations on drivers:
People over 40 are generaly good drivers.
Women tend to not notice that the light turns colors.
Men tend not to care that the light turns colors.
Women tend to drive like idiots, men like assholes.
