Car crash driver blames pterodactyl
A pterodactyl, or, as it was once suggested here before, Abdominal Snowman in an hang glider? You decide.
Washington man in audacious dino-defence
A 29-year-old Washington driver who last Thursday night drifted into the oncoming lane before crashing into a light pole failed to convince police officers that flying dinosaurs were to blame, HeraldNet reports.
The 29-year-old Wenatchee man apparently wandered off course "for less than a block" while oncoming traffic obligingly stopped to let him pass en route to said pole. Wenatchee police Sgt. Cherie Smith said that a breathalyzer test showed "a minimal amount of alcohol", although officers' queries as to what had caused the prang were met with the single-word answer "pterodactyl".
The man was treated in hospital and later released. He has been charged with first-degree negligent driving.
