And what happens if none of the experts are right?

Wouldn't determining the accuracy of the experts require an expert in itself, and who can say that expert is right?

Wouldn't the correct answer be hindsight ?

In order to have hindsight, shouldn't you adjust your mirrors before driving?

Am I the only person who thinks back up cameras are just a gimmick, after all we have three rear view mirrors(five if you have spotter mirrors), and a head that is capable of turning to look behind you?

I did too,... till I drove a new knox that had it, you get a good view , you could see a ant walking under your hitch. Safty, first!!

That begs the question, how many insects become statistics daily ??

According to a USDA study in 2004, utilizing "Splatometers" placed on a random sampling of vehicles, the average American traveling 10,000 miles per year will hit roughly 200,000 insects. So extrapolating that data gives a figure of approximately 60 Trillion insects becoming statistics in the average year on US roads.

But you already knew I'd have an answer to your question, right Sam?

Ok so figure out how we can get a penny each for them, and how long it would take to pay the National debt off ?

Who would pay a penny for a dead bug?
