This is why you don't do radio interviews while you're driving...

Odds are, you've probably heard a few radio interviews regarding the Ryder Cup the past couple days. But we doubt you've heard any that ended quite like this.

Melbourne Radio's Mark Allen, a former Australian golf professional, was giving his thoughts on the action at Gleneagles while driving on Tuesday when he rear-ended a car. Fortunately, no one was hurt. Here's the extremely entertaining audio:

After ending the interview for legal reasons -- and because Allen had to deal with the accident -- an incredulous Bartlett went on.

"Can you believe that he's had a crash while speaking on radio?! That is a first, that is an absolute first! I reckon's that'd make a good promo, don't you think?"

Not sure about that, but golf experts everywhere can learn a lesson from this one. Don't analyze and drive.
