If Statement 1 is false then Statement 2 can't be " on another occasion" it would have to be "on one occasion" to be true. Statement 3 replies on Statements 1 & 2. "yet another occasion" which is more than 2 "true" occasions. If Statements 1 or 2 are false then Statement 3 can't be "on yet another occasion" it would have to be "on another occasion" to be true. Statement 3 has to be "false" to get two overall "true" statements. (Where's Fjor, see if he understands me.)

I was bruised everywhere, torn up and scraped, but nothing was broken. A little disinfectant, gauze, and tape, and I was ready to drive on.
