How NOT to get rich

A multi-car traffic accident on the 105 Freeway in Hawthorne, CA, was apparently caused by money flying around on freeway this afternoon. People got distracted when attempting to catch the bills as they fluttered by. In the end, it's not worth it--not only are their cars totaled, but a few people wound up with serious injuries. It took about an hour and a half to clean things up and gather the money.

At least the person who lost the money will get most of it back, since a bank deposit slip was found on the freeway. If the driver got hurt while retrieving the money, I bet he/she would be pissed. Now they'll probably have to give that money up if they were found to be negligent.
