** Valerie warns Sam about how dangerous is talking on highway payphones in the middle of nowhere, as she had read in tabloids that some freak accidents tend to happen there. Sam doesn't believe her, dismissing her claims as "made up stories". However, and speak of the devil, another driver at a fast speed fails to notice Sam, causing him to abruptly brake his car with a Christmas tree deattaching itself and crashing face-first into Sam's ecological car. As a result, almost all of his Biodiesel fuel starts leaking rapidly, thus proving that Valerie was right.
---> Valerie: Well, I hope you're not talking on one of those roadside pay phones. I read that all kinds of freak accidents happen there by the shoulder.
---> Sam: You have to stop reading those dumb tabloids, okay? You know they make those stories up. [a car suddenly shows up and unintentionally ruins Sam's car as both of them scream in terror. Sam's biodiesel fuel starts leaking rapidly] Oh, boy.
