*HOAX* Alabama DOT Warning Received from My Car Club
« on: December 11, 2009, 08:37:12 AM »
** UPDATE ** sorry guys, just learned that this is a hoax.
http://www.snopes.com/crime/warnings/eggthrow.asp

Anyone ever heard of this?

/******************************/

IF YOU ARE DRIVING AT NIGHT AND EGGS ARE THROWN AT YOUR WINDSHIELD.

DO NOT OPERATE THE WIPER AND SPRAY ANY WATER BECAUSE  EGGS MIXED WITH WATER BECOME MILKY AND BLOCK YOUR VISION UP TO 92.5% SO YOU ARE FORCED TO STOP AT THE ROADSIDE AND BECOME A VICTIM OF ROBBERS.   THIS IS A NEW TECHNIQUE USED BY ROBBERS.  

PLEASE INFORM YOUR FRIENDS AND
RELATIVES.

thanks for the heads up.  If eggs get thrown on my windshield, I will pull two of my Glocks from under the seat and have one in each hand with 18 rounds in each.

Some people are like Slinkies. Not really good for anything, but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs
