Stilblüten aus Schreiben von Versicherungsnehmern:
In einer Linkskurve geriet ich ins Schleudern, wobei mein Wagen einen
Obststand streifte und ich - behindert durch die wild
durcheinanderpurzelnden Bananen, Orangen und Kürbisse - nach dem
Umfahren eines Briefkastens auf die andere Straßenseite geriet, dort
gegen einen Baum prallte und schließlich - zusammen mit zwei parkenden
PKWs - den Hang hinunterrutschte.  Danach verlor ich
bedauerlicherweise die Herrschaft über mein Auto.
