I saw someone get hit by a car and just literally ragdoll in the air. Stayed in my head that image for a while.

seen this several times, cops turning on their siren to pass through traffic and finding out that is was uncalled for.

Did they have a helmet or any protective clothes on? I'm guessing no on one or both of those. What you had there was an (unfortunately not rare) sighting of a squid.

I think he actually was wearing a helmet/protection, but it's been many years since I've seen it.

Well, IMHO if he was doing stunts on the freeway he was still a dumbass that will break himself or his bike sooner or later.

  • 6 miles of abandoned cars (a tornado just hit)
  • An overturned PEPSI truck (empty; no bottlecaps to collect!)
  • Two live chickens (both on the same side)
  • G.O.D.
  • The top half of a truck trailer (driver misjudged their clearance)
  • These blog posts
Also, I've been in a car whose hood popped right into the windshield at 45 mph (engine failure)
My scheduling skills have died of dysentery; I hope to visit at least on a monthly basis.
Still, don't forget to tip your waitress.

Happened probably 18 years ago but, it was maybe a 70s car, US-make of some kind, the front shocks were completely shot (?). I thought so as when my friends and I were about at the same pace two lanes over, whenever we went over an overpass with a slight uphill/downhill, this car did bouncing push-ups or like a precursor to the hydrolic bouncing.
