    Ever see something crazy while on the road?

    A few days ago on the drive home from upstate NY, I saw a Tow truck, which was towing another truck.. which was towing another truck...


    Basically... a truck, towing 2 trucks...

    I managed to get some pics of it:

    Yeah, while it might have looked like the 2nd truck was towing the 3rd truck, in actual fact, that is how they typically "stack" trucks to transport them. With cars, they can pile them into those transporters. But needless to say, trucks are too large for that setup. So they end up just piggybacking them.

    I've seen those a few times, but I've seen one thing on the road that I will never forget.... And honestly, had I not seen it with my own two eyes I would have never believed it would have happened.

    I was going down the freeway and ended up behind a car that was going very slowly and was following awfully close to the truck in front of it. After a few seconds I realized the truck was towing the car..... As I passed the two vehicles, I noticed that they were towing the car with panty hose and duct tape..... Seriously, panty hose and duct tape. They had one leg wrapped around the bumper of the truck and the other leg wrapped around the bumper of the car, with duct tape wrapped around the length of the panty hose for structural support.

    I looked at the two toothless, mullet sporting drivers as they exited off towards a "white trash" part of my town and just shook my head and kept on going, thankful that the panty hose and duct tape held up.

    Just yesterday I saw the most surreal thing ever... and it wasnt just me... everyone around me saw it too. There was this red mustang with a ricer paintjob (flames, whatever), a big spoiler, etc. On the back and front of the car, it had flashing lights like a cop car. (those ones that look like flashing headlights and taillights). It was playing music like from an ice cream truck, but really loud, we could hear it coming and were like wtf. Then it pulls up, driving slowly, and the driver looks over at us. It's a guy in a clown suit, but the most evil clown I've ever seen! He just kind of stares, smiles evilly and drives off. It was the most surreal thing I've ever seen. I have no idea wtf that was.

    Hehay! No Hands! love the second photo, looks like you just shifted across and took the photo. I sure hope you had cruise control and a bit of rope holding the steering straight.

    But seriously kids, don't take photos while driving.

    -btw, I don't really think you were driving as well.
