I once was driving on the 210 freeway in my 00 S2000 with the top down. Out of the corner of my eye I say a big, heavy gauge metal pipe flying right at my head. I heard a loud metal-on-metal BANG! and my car moved over half a lane. I thought "Shit, I've just been sideswiped!" but there was no other car. I pulled over and the pipe had hit one of my alloy wheels, taking a silver dollar sized chunk out of one of my spokes. A little higher and it would have taken off my head or penetrated my door and stomach.

I usually start recording or ask my passenger to with my cell if I see someone doing stupid shit or driving drunk.
