At a job interview once the bloke interviewing me asked "Do you
drive?", on answering in the affirmative he then paused, looked
embarrassed and said "I hope you don't mind me asking, but do you
have a lot of accidents?" My answer, which I'm sure helped me get the
job ('cos he was unable to talk coherently for the next 5 minutes)
was "No, but I see an awful lot in my mirror".
