    Bizarre accident - crash

    3 News > Odd News > Story > Woman crashes into Arrowtown swimming pool
    Driver survives spectacular crash | Otago Daily Times Online

    http://static.stuff.co.nz/1248695386/547/2679547.jpg

    Fire officers in the South Island town of Arrowtown are shaking their heads in disbelief following a call out involving a truck and a swimming pool.

    A 20-year-old woman lost control on the streets of Arrowtown at around 3am, plowing her vehicle through the fence of a residential property.

    The bizarre crash saw the four-wheel drive pirouette 180 degrees, destroy a garden shed and a concrete barbeque, then finish with a perfect landing in a frozen swimming pool.

    Arrowtown Fire officer Garry Hall says the woman was lucky to survive after nearly being impaled by a piece of timber through her windshield.
    She must've lost 8 of her 9 lifes in this accident.

    That was my thought too.

    Also I don't really see how this is a bizarre accident or unusual car crash. Was the woman wearing a clown suit? That would make it strange.

    Um... everywhere in that article its like "everyone was in shock as it is one of the worst crash scenes in the area in 24years"

    Sorry, but we have WORSE than that every other day here, some people walk away from and some that people don't, but still. That scene is that bad to them? Shes in an above ground swimming pool she isnt even submerged lmao. Must be a nice place to live.

    Mods, is it possible to have an unusual/quirky news thread made as a catch-all for this kind of story? Similar to the celebrity death thread and other theme threads. There's little reponse to be made to most of these threads that doesn't look like it basically belongs in the spam forum anyway.

    Lots of people just take what they see on digg or whatever and throw it on here, 99% of the time it should be spam or somewhere where noone cares about. Celebrity deaths generate a lot of views and such, but threads like these and articles from digg are more spam-like and shouldn't generate post counts.

    Most of the time it seems that is all they are posted for.

    You're implying that no one cares about spam.
