    Isn't that Arizona your talking about? Hey -

    The National Transportation Safety Board recently divulged they had funded
    a project with the US auto makers for the past five years. The NTSB
    covertly funded a project whereby the auto makers were installing black
    boxes in four wheel drive pickup 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% of fatal crashes were, "Oh, Shit!"

    Only the state of Texas was different, where 89.3% of the final words were,
    "Hey hold my beer and watch this!"
