What’s that? Under the driver’s seat?
A silver hammer.
Maxwell’s?
Lol, No, mine.
What for? In case of a car jacking?
No. In case I’m caught. In a flood.
Pardon?
You remember the floods in NSW a few weeks back when a car tried to drive through a flooded road and the car sank, the driver died? You know what happened?
Not really.
The electronics failed. The driver couldn’t open a door or window to escape. Suffocated. Now if he had a hammer.
Gives a new meaning to the old song, doesn’t it?
What song?
‘If I Had a Hammer’.

everyone seems to think so though the chances of me driving through a flooded highway is akin to finding a needle in a haystack 🙂

As long as you’re not getting hammered and then driving, I’d say all is still well. 😉

I always have a tool to break the windows out of the car if we drop into a lake. Doesn’t everyone? 😉

I didn’t think they did; I thought I was a loner, a weirdo but after that story hit the papers, people began to think on similar lines 🙂
