    A crack head bent at the waist, her shorts were down and her ass was prolapsing in and out. One of the most horrid things I’ve ever seen.

    Saw a big transport truck zip by the opposite way on fire. Driver didn’t seem bothered. Found out later on the news he literally didn’t know he was on fire until he started getting honked at and saw all the smoke.

    I’ve been in Florida where some old dude was just driving down the street right on his rim like it was normal.

    I saw a little shitbox Sunfire 2-door with the box of a fullsize pickup strapped upside down over the car. He had a piece of lumber across the front seats and out the windows to hold up the sides of the box. The tailgate was strapped on top of this mess and he was bombing along at almost 100km/h.

    An actual tumbleweed ran into the car I was driving. Couldn’t really dodge as there was a car in the other lane but it actually wasn’t too bad.

    A car on fire on an entrance ramp. Thought it was a wildfire at first until I got closer and was weirdly relieved when I saw what it was.

    Late one night, zooming home on my motorcycle on a toll road in California after working late on the job, sun had fully set.

    There was a 15ft ladder diagonal on the road across one and a half lanes. I was in the half lane it wasn’t, simply zoomed past. I later called CHP about it, guess it got taken care of, but i doubt I was fast enough to prevent an accident.

    I never forget that when it’s dark and the urge to crank it kicks in.

    Years ago my friend and I were driving in NE Mississippi at about 2 am to visit another friend. Out of nowhere this kid - maybe 12, but doubtful if that - with no shirt on just sprinted across the road.

    We both looked at each other and said, “Did you see that?”

    We both had. No idea why he was there at that time but I hope he was okay.

    One time I got stuck behind a huge semi-truck full of dead cows for 45 minutes. It smelled atrocious. The stench was so strong that it gave me a headache and changed my mood. The smell of death and decay is quite overwhelming when it is that powerful.

    The remains of two people all over the interior of their convertible. It happened literally seconds ahead of me and I had to pass within a foot of it on the driver’s side.

    The image hasn’t left my mind in over 20 years.

    I was driving from Bakersfield to LA and pulled off the highway to get some gas. It was one of those exit ramps that goes down lower than the highway. I’m sitting at the light waiting to turn left and go under the highway, when a car comes flying off the highway upside down. It is airborne and goes right over top of my car. It hits the ground, slides until it hits the other side of the road and somehow rolls back onto its wheels. It then tries to take off but just crashes into fence and stops. A few moments later a parade of police cars came hauling ass down the exit ramp. I just drove straight back onto the highway and stopped at the next gas station.
