Nurse here be careful with that road head. A good bump can get your Johnson bit off.

Ooh ooh.... I rode with hubby for a year. Driving down a Florida interstate (where else?) one afternoon hubby tells me to look out his window; I do. Driving a convertible is a man with no pants on; he's got ahold of the joystick and is amusing himself for all he's worth. Of course we lit up the CB radio (this was in the early 90s) and so every truck on that side of the highway who was in the area of the convertible got a good laugh.

“There’s a monkey in the car next to me and I have to pee.”

And yet people wonder why there are so many car accidents... just do this stuff when you get there... or before leaving...

So my Dad doesn't drive a truck, but one time en route to his old job he saw a guy eating a bowl of cereal (with milk) while driving and steering with his kneecaps.

I don’t really apply to this, but one time there was a wreck far ahead and it stopped the entire highway. Some people got out of their cars and walked around, did some talking.

My fav was a guy in a small truck, he took his bearded dragon lizard out and it was chilling on the back tailgate getting some sun.

It was surreal

My first 6 months on the road, four times I saw guys rubbing one out while driving. New Jersey, Connecticut, and twice in Pennsylvania.

0:27 I have a feeling he’s the guy who did it.

I think that there must be a market for some cereal product that is safe (ish) to eat while driving. Oh yes, cereal bars!

I saw a trucker with a sticker on his mirror said " BE A FLIRT LIFT YOUR SHIRT" I flashed the double DD's.

Some idiot in a huge pickup was dangerously cutting me and a trucker off almost hitting my side towards the big rig and I think we both got a panic attack. The trucker and I looked at each other for a second in disbelief and we looked back to the road.

This terrifies me as someone who is soon getting my full license.

I drive a Vans for special needs people. Most of the time I'm in a Dodge Caravan, but occasionally I'll be driving a Ford Transit. One of the big ones with the high top. Either way, the vans have very large, bright yellow banners on the front & back that are printed in bold black letters; "SCHOOL STUDENTS". Because sometimes we get hired to drive for special needs kids to take them to and from school. So the banners are required by law.
The sheer amount of idiocy, and lack of concern for others on the road is astounding! You'd thing that seeing this bright yellow sign, that people wouls take a bit more care. NOPE! they cut me off, ride my ass, and generally act like they belong IN my van themselves. 90% of women (in my area, at least) are texting or scrolling fecesbook or instascam or crapchat. Once, I was going 65 (mph) down a 4-lane and saw a woman in the fast-lane pacing me, taking selfies, then go to thumbing the phone rapidly, then another selfie followed by more thumbing, over & over. She damn near sideswiped my van (with passengers in it) This went on for about 30 seconds. She must have spent about a whole 2 of those seconds looking at the road. I laid on the horn. It must have startled her because her hands flew up, and her phone flew up, smacked her in the face, and then went right out the window I caught a glimpse of it shattering on the road and getting run over by a pick-up truck. *Ahhh. Justice!* Only about 75% of men are on phones, but most of them are just holding it to their ear. ... In new cars, with BT connectivity..
I have seen cars going down roads and streets after dark with no lights on, except for a white glow on the drivers chest and downturned face.
The amount of people driving while on cellphones is truly alarming! Something like sensors in cars that disable phones, or vice versa need to be put in place.

I now wonder if any truckers have seen me eating whole peppers like apples.

Traveled in a minivan (so slight height advantage)for five years to and from school which was twelve miles away.in that time I’ve seen people;brushing teeth, getting dressed, eating cereal milk and all, doing makeup, watching porn on their phone on the dashboard, smoking a blunt (there were police visible at the next junction ) oh and forgetting stuff on top of their cars, I’ve seen pots for breakfast to go, shoes, briefcases, glasses etc lol

[angelarredondo]

My cousin once was smokin, eating, changing the radio station, adjusting the mirrors all while driving

[kathymain]

Have done so many things driving. Brushed teeth, changed clothes, put makeup on etc. None activity while driving is a waste of time.

[johnblaze]

I smoke big backwood blunts openly in my car lol some people stare but I feel like a lot of people here in Florida drive around smoking weed it’s not that crazy

[esmooth]

8:55 Then there's the Canadian in the "geep"
