I actually prefer the headline "Motorists Were in a Slurry" but I couldn't just rip the whole posting now could I? Basically some drivers in Mequon, Wisconsin drove into a patch of freshly poured cement causing between $15,000 and $20,000 in damage. The subject of debate is whether or not the drivers knowingly drove around the orange barrels and yellow caution tape.
"It was really a very confusing and poorly marked intersection," whined lead motorist Dennis Paul who managed to sucker between at least four and as many as 10 vehicles into going the wrong way. Mr. Paul sounds very similar to Luke Skywalker's complaining "But I was going into Tosche Station to pick up some power converters!"
However there are those who backup the errant drivers claiming that the construction job has suffered from poor planning and marking. There even a blog about the construction zone called Mequon Clog. You can read the full story here.
