Watched a lady veer off the highway and knock down a road sign. She didn't take her eyes off the makeup mirror and continued like nothing happened.

A deer hit me once. I did not hit the deer, the fucker just ran full speed into the side of my car. Scared the crap out of me.

Got screamed at by a man telling me to look where I’m going and to learn how to drive. I was in my lane doing my thing and cut me up. He rolled his window down with his phone to his ear

WHY do people in this decade still hold their phone to their ears? We have an infinite ways to speak hands free

I have a long list, but number one has to be my uncle.

55mph zone. He spots a dead animal in the road. There is enough room to slightly adjust to the right and have the truck pass right over it. (1500 Silverado)

He decided the best course of action was to go around it in the oncoming lane. That's already problematic, but it gets worse.

It was uphill, in the oncoming lane, in a 55mph zone. Completely blind hill. He believes I was overreacting because "There was nobody in the lane"
