other than being in the s2000 while seeing these things....
what does this post have to do with 's2000 talk'
shouldn't this be in the off-topic section?

Had someone drop an entire basketball goal on I10 in front of me one time. I just barely escaped that one.

Once I was driving down a 2 lane highway and I saw the truck in front of me straddle something that looked like a little kid. I didn't have time to stop before it went under my car. I was sure I was running over a child when, as it disappeared under my car, I suddenly realized it was a large Wiley Coyote stuffed animal. I drove another 2 miles with him under the car doing an undercarriage test.
