News of the weird



Article: Two men in a Dodge Neon were seriously injured in a rollover accident on Interstate 75 near Toledo, Ohio, in October after a red bra flew from the radio antenna of another car, startling the Neon driver and causing him to swerve and lose control. The Ohio Highway Patrol later learned that the owner of the bra had hung it from the aerial after she realized that it was wet due to her dog's having chewed on it earlier that day. A prosecutor said a misdemeanor littering charge would be filed against the woman, but was exploring whether there had been out-the-window socializing between the cars' occupants before the rollover.

Red Bra
Carrie and Sara were excited about trick or treating; they were driving to an uptown community to find the “good candy”. Along beside them was Carrie’s dog Baxter.
“Oh I can’t to wait to get all of the best candy! Can you believe this will be the last Halloween we celebrate?” Carrie said
“Yeah I hope we get all of the best candy especially those little packets of Swedish Fish!”
“Oh Sara I really hate what I’m wearing.”
“Don’t worry I brought extra cloths in the back for us to change into when we get there.”
Carrie reached into the back seat to grab the bag and search for new outfit. She noticed that it was all wet. When she stretched over more she noticed that the dog had chewed and drooled on most of the cloths. When she looked at the dog she noticed he had Sara’s red bra in his mouth.
“Eww, your dog has your bra in his mouth!”
“Are you freaking serious?” Sara yelled
“Yeah look at him.”
“Well don’t just sit there Carrie, take it away from him!”
Carrie reached over and snatched the bra from the dogs mouth.
“So Sara what do you want me to do with it?”
“Just hang it out the window to dry.”
Carrie rolled the window down and held the bra in her hand. Carrie went to hang the bra out the window but wind was to strong that the bra flew out of her hand.

As the bra flies out of her hand, behind them was a little Dodge Neon. William and Brandon were on their way to a Halloween party to visit some of their college buddies. They were singing along to the song on the radio at the highest volume and weren’t really paying attention to the road.
“I’m so excited about tonight. It’s going to be awesome!” William said
Just as William turned his attention back to the road, something flung over and scared him. It all happened so fast that by the time you knew it; their car swerved and lost control. William yells
“What the hell was that”
“ I think it was bird, watch the road”
As William tries to gain control he almost hit a little red car that was driving behind him. Carrie looks back in her rear view mirror and witnesses the whole incident as it happened. Stund she suddenly pulls over and realizes that the Dodge Neon pulled over a few feet behind them. Sara started to freak out and said.
“ I could have killed someone with that bra”
“ You never should have told me to hang it out to dry”
“ What if there was a baby in the car”
“Don’t worry everything will be alright. It looks like everyone is ok”
Carrie and Sara approach the Dodge Neon car and ask if everyone was all right. With a reply of head nodding up and down saying yes we are fine. William grabbed his cell phone and call 911 to report the incident. Five minutes later the police, firemen, and emergency crew arrived.
“We are so sorry. This is so embarrassing.” Carrie blushed
“ Here miss I think this is your bra, I found it a couple of feet away” Brandon said
“Oh thank you.” Sarah and Carrie said together
After all the embarrassment and insurance information was switched between the drivers, all that was left was awkward moments and crushed cars.
