Was driving on I-80 west of Rawlins, WY when a car passed me at high speed and I saw a dog in back seat leaping back and forth between the open windows. Suddenly out the passenger side, a large and hairy dog flew out the window and went bouncing down side of pavement with balls of hair peeling off at every impact. I put on the brakes as the car was stopping hard. The dog got up on all fours and shook its self, the car backed up and the dog went running to it seemingly unhurt and jumped into open door.

The driver maneuvered her Impala back on the highway Impalas are flighty beasts; maybe it caught a whiff of Jaguar, and panicked.

Reminds me of a joke.
An elderly man was driving down the road when he suddenly saw blue lights in his rear-view mirror.
He dutifully pulled over and the officer walked to his door.
“Sir, you rounded a sharp turn about three miles back. When you did, the passenger door came open and your wife fell out onto the roadway.”
“Thank heavens!” the man said.
“What?” said the officer. “Why would you thank heavens for something like that?”
“I thought I’d gone deaf”, the man replied.

Then there’s the German joke about a wrong-way driver on the Autobahn (a serious real life problem):
A little old man decided to visit his cousin an hour away on the Autobahn.
“Hans,” his wife said, “You must take your cell phone, just in case you have car trouble.”
“Yes, Hilda, I will.”
Three hours later Hilda frantically calls Hans—on his way home by now. “Hans, Hans, you MUST be careful, the TV news says there is a wrong-way driver on your part of the Autobahn right now!”
“Yes, yes, I KNOW, Hilda!” Hans replies, “THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF THEM PASSING ME!!!”

God works in strange ways, His wonders to perform...... Now why would God steer that car into a ditch and throw that poor girl out the back window?

I don’t think you can blame God for that—I think the blame lies strictly with the driver of the car.

"I can't think of anything smat-alecky to say about this story."
That's because this is a very serious subject.
We're dealing here with a full blown cultural initiative to bring Minnesota
up to the same level of sophistication as Da U.P.
I make no assertion as to the relevance of the linked video to the posted story. I merely point it out for a general cultural affinity and also the opening sequence that features an ultra secret prototype for the next generation of the Can-Am Spyder.

This is why I never carry passengers in the back seat.

That’s what the trunk’s for.

broke a back window. As the car bounced along the rough terrain,I'm trying to imagine the "rough terrain" that would smash a REAR window, and then bounce a kid out said window.
Then I'm trying to imagine the circumstances that would impel me to keep driving after I somehow make it back up to the road.
Seems to me that unless you're being chased by bikers (ala Mad Max) - or on your way to the hospital, it would be prudent to stop and take stock of the vehicle - AND YOUR PASSENGERS!!!

But only on the way TO the store. It’s too full of the grocery on the way back.

On the way home there’s the Romney Technique.
