Always put the paint in the boot(Trunk)

This is why the Spanish don't allow shopping on the back seat

Note to self ,always put the paint in the boot!!


The people in the blue car had a 25 litre (5 gallon) can of paint on the back seat prior to the accident.

The ambulance driver wouldn't let the femail paramedic out of the ambulance because she couldn't stop laughing, he said it wasn't professional.


He treated the sad looking driver.....

Apparantly ,he was overcome with emulsion.

Thanks for sharing, Dennis.

I haven't laughed that hard in a long time!

It also would have helped to use the seat belt to hold the paint down.

I put my dog's food in a 5 gallon bucket, I had it dump over in the car once. Now I tie it down before I take off.

Those folks need a shower, fast! They don't want to let that stuff dry...

This is unreal...

At least now they just have to roll themselves on their walls to paint them!

Especially since they experienced hazardous whiteout driving conditions.

Judging by where his car ended up maybe the paint was covering his eyes before the crash
