The Accident

While with the State Highway, I sat on the Accident Review Board. Its function was to determine fault for all vehicle accidents and if necessary, institute discipline.

When the Administrator wrecked his State owned car, the majority of the Board wanted to vote that the other driver was drunk.

"Drunk?" I said. "How in the world do y'all figure that?"

"Well he had to be." said one Deputy Chief Engineer. "He was driving a tree."
