Truth Can Be Stranger Than Fiction

Allegedly, all of the following come from actual auto claims reports.


  • Coming home I drove into the wrong house and collided with a tree I don't have.


  • The other car collided with mine without giving me warning of its intention.


  • I thought my window was down, but I found it was up when I put my head through it.


  • I collided with a stationary truck coming the other way.



  • A pedestrian hit me and went under my car.


  • The guy was all over the road. I had to swerve several times before I hit him.


  • I pulled away from the side of the road, glanced at my mother in law and headed over the embankment.


  • In an attempt to kill a fly, I drove into a telephone pole.



  • I had been shopping for a plant all day and was on my way home. As I reached an inter-section a hedge sprang up, obscuring my vision and I did not see the other car.


  • I had been driving for 40 years when I fell asleep at the wheel and had an accident.


  • I was on the way to the doctor with rear end trouble when my universal joint gave way causing me to have an accident and damage my big end.


  • As I approached the intersection a sign appeared in a place where no stop sign had ever appeared before. I was unable to stop in time to avoid the accident.



  • To avoid hitting the bumper of the car in front I stuck a pedestrian.


  • My car was legally parked as it backed into another vehicle.


  • An invisible car came out of nowhere, stuck my car and vanished.


  • I told the police that I was not injured, but on removing my hat I found that I had a fractured skull.



  • I was sure the old fellow would never make it to the other side of the road when I struck him.


  • The pedestrian had no idea which direction to run. So I ran over him.


  • I saw a slow moving, sad faced old gentleman as he bounced off the roof of my car.


  • The indirect cause of the accident was a little guy in a small car with a big mouth.


  • I was thrown from my car as it left the road. I was later found in a ditch by some stray cows.



  • The telephone pole was approaching. I was attempting to swerve out the way when I struck the front end.


  • The accident was caused by me waving to the man I hit last week.


  • I knocked over a man, he admitted it was his fault as he'd been knocked over before.
