Tennessee man flips car five times after letting ‘Jesus take the wheel’

A Tennessee man told police this week that Jesus personally came to him and told him to let Him drive on his behalf.

The result, reports local news station WVLT, is that his car veered off the highway and then flipped over five times.

Tennessee Highway Patrol officers say that when they arrived on the scene of the accident, 33-year-old Chad England was “speaking gibberish” and trying to flee the scene while carrying a jar.

Police say that England was “obviously” under the influence of drugs at the time of the crash, although the man apparently refused to take a blood test.

A search of England’s car revealed, according to WVLT, “six grams of marijuana, 0.6 grams of cocaine, a pipe, rolling papers, a 3/4 empty bottle of Crown Royal, a small empty bottle of Crown Royal, and several cans used for ‘huffing.’”

I never did trust those “God is my co-pilot” types but I did like the sequels, “Christ is my crew-chief” and “Cthulhu is my armorer.”
