NTSB Findings:

The National Transportation Safety Board recently
announced that they had covertly funded a project with
a U.S. auto maker for the past five years. The auto
makers were installing black boxes in four-wheel drive
pick-up trucks in an effort to determine, in fatal
accidents, the circumstances in the last 15 seconds
before the
crash.

They were surprised to find in 49 of the 50 states the
last words of drivers in 61.2 percent of fatal crashes
were, "Oh, Shit!" Only the state of Texas was
different, where 89.3 percent of the final words were,
"Hey Y'all, hold my beer and watch this!"
