The Accident

Too many accidents on our roads, Bring in new experts was the call, Money no object. They soon signed up Joe, Who was not slow, For a sum they chose not to show. He soon had them convinced it was OK, For anything doing under a hundred K, On the foot path to stay. Soon Joe, Who was not slow, Had a nice bonus he could show, As the road toll started to slow. But alas poor Joe, Who was not slow, Had a car tyre blow. Unfortunately for Joe, While bending down low, To change the tyre that did blow, On the footpath where traffic now did flow, He was dealt a fatal blow, From a walking stick, that is now on show.
