Priceless

A few years back I drove a box truck in downtown Boston, right around the time 2 local radio jocks were doing a bit called WOW (whip em out wendsday). Stuck in traffic 2 girls in a convertable were listenig also,radio cranked.I yelled out wow and sure enough,they whipped em out

 

That sounds like a bit more interactive bit than most radio shows do.

Hmm, that guy might have wanted to hurry up a bit. He must have missed the part when they do that on the crotch rockets that they are still steering it!!

 

One morning about 2AM, I was driving South on I-55 north of Jackson,MS. Very little traffic, running 75-80mph in the right lane, coming up to an overpass. As I topped the overpass, a bike that must have been doing 100mph flashed past me in the left lane, going North. Good thing I wasn't driving in the smoother left lane like I frequently did.

 

ok, had a good one today.
My boss has an 04 2500 Dodge Hemi . While we were out running around today, I kept giving him a hard time about looking over his shoulder to back up. Finally, he decides to back into the shop to unload some stuff and he is only going to use his mirrors. He backs into the forklift and dents his bumper...

 

Back around 1976 (or so) in the little town of Torrejon about 15 miles east of Madrid, Spain. I had been teaching my (at the time wife and now my ex) how to drive. I had a little Fiat 128 4-door sedan. Maria was finally getting coordinated on clutch, accelerator, and brakes. I had taken her many times to the industrial area of Torrejon to practice and she was getting really good. One day we get ready for the practice and our neighbor asked if she could ride along. Now Maria has to show someone else that she knows how to drive. It took her about 5 tries to get the car to move without killing the engine. She finally settles down and smoothes out her driving. We get to the old road going into Torrejon and I tell Maria to turn left and head towards town. About a 1/2 mile from the ONLY gas station, I tell her "Turn right at the gas station". She continues on down the road at about 45 mph and I repeat, "Turn right at the gas station". Well, we are now AT the gas station and it dawns on Maria that I wanted her to turn right at the gas station. She lays on the brakes and turns right onto the little side street at the gas station - just where I wanted her to turn. I look at her and said, "Please stop the car.!.!" She looked at me and said, "What...." WHAM!!! There was a car that had been stolen and stripped sitting at the curb about 30 feet or so from the intersection. It was sitting on it's floor pan - no wheels! My Fiat had the thick energy absorbing bumpers. Maria slammed directly into the back of this abandonded car and caused it to slide about 2 feet on it's floor pan and leaving the impression of my bumper across the back of this car. Didn't hurt my Fiat, but the look on her face was priceless. She and I traded seating positions in the car and I drove home.

Last summer I was west of DesMoines, IA doing 75 MPH in heavy traffic. A little old lady had gotten on I80 by mistake STOPPED in the right hand lane, and tuned LEFT across the median. She even had her turn signal on. YUP! She did a U turn in the middle of I80 with rush hour traffic doing 75 MPH. There were trucks all over the road, taking the shoulders, dust, smoke....no one was hurt.

 

Back in the 80s I was returning from a cnc training class at about 4:00 PM or so.
I crested a hill and could see for about a 1/4 of mile down the road that there where 3 or 4 cars parked under an overpass. As I got closer I could see that the
passengers ( about 6 of them ) where all standing on the retaining wall and ah------- shall we say displaying that they where all guys and had the need to relieve themselves of some fluids. Thank the lord that there backs where to the road! After I passed them I looked at the driver in the next lane and we both had that look that says, DID YOU SEE THAT TOO!

 

I was in town the other day and someone was coming the wrong direction on the one way street i was on. Everyone was honking, and the sad part was that it took me a minute to figure out why people were honking

I was on I 85 going north out of Charlotte about a year ago, There was a little import pickup with a driver who had a case of suicidal road rage. He flew past me cut right in front of an eighteen wheeler and locked up the brakes. The truck swerved to the right so the PU sped up and tryed to force the big truck to the shoulder by cutting it off. this kept up for a few miles, the little truck would make a kamikaze run at the big truck and then beat the snot out of the little truck to catch up and try it again. It was only by sheer luck and some truly amazing driving skill on the part of the big truck driver that the little truck and its driver didn't get squoshed. Finally I there were a few troopers lined up at an exit to get this guy. I don't know what happened after that.

 

A couple years ago I was stopped in traffic at a light in my work vehicle (unmarked, but obviously a UC car). A punk gang member in the car next to me was mad-******* me - guess he thought I would be intimidated. I eased off the brakes and rolled forward a few inches, and he promptly floored it. Too bad traffic was still stopped - he wiped out the front of his car and the back of the mini-van in front of him. For some reason, he wouldn't look at me after that....

I've lost count of the other stupid things I see on a daily basis, but I passed two idiots making a U-turn through the median of I-10 while heading to Phoenix today. I don't care what you're driving, going from 0-85 MPH (what everyone in the left lane normally travels at) in less than two seconds just isn't possible.

 

craziest thing I saw was a man with a can of chocolate milk against his ear.
officer stopped him and sayd: It's not allowed to make a telephone call while driving.... man: it wasn't a cell phone !! it was a can of chocolate milk !!!
officer: WHY a can of chocolate milk?????
man: cause a cell phone is not allowed!!

Hypocrisy has absolutely nothing to do with it.

There are plenty of those sites on the internet.

OK, how about the guy who was stopped for dragging a chain down the road. The cop said, "Why are you dragging that chain?" The driver said, "You ever try pushing one?"
