When Carrie Underwood released Jesus Take The Wheel, she didnt mean for it to be taken literally. Weve heard of the dangers of texting and driving, which takes thousands of lives each year because people cant wait to LOL at their friends really awesome message but rarely do we hear of the dangers of prayer while operating a motor vehicle.
A 28-year-old woman in the city of Mary Esther, Florida, was cited for reckless driving and property damage after she reportedly decided to close her eyes and pray while she was driving eastbound on Marcia Drive. The unnamed woman failed to stop at a stop sign, went through an intersection and into the yard of a home on Miramar Drive where she crashed into someones home. She then tried to back out but got stuck in the sand.
This may seem unbelievable, but here are some photos of the crash, courtesy of Northwest Florida Daily News:

Police initially believe Marilyn Perry was under the influence of drugs or alcohol, or had been using her cell phone, but an investigation revealed this was not the case. Perry crashed into a grandmother who was getting her grandchildren out of the car, causing life-threatening injuries. .............(more)

How's this different?
Just because 80+% believe and talk to an invisible sky being doesn't make it any less nuts.
