Bumper Cars… no…. car bumper!

Last Thursday I was driving back home in traffic when all of a sudden just over a hill a car bumper was laying across my lane. Please keep in mind the freeway here is 75mph! There was a car directly next to me and one right behind me. My only option was to “not quite” slam on my brakes and I nudged it with the suburban so that it would “spin” lengthwise and it moved over to the edge my lane. That was my intention so that hopefully no other cars would run over it.

I immediately pulled over to inspect if there was any damage. The car that had been next to me on the freeway turned out to be a K-9 police car! He pulled over with me. He had is “partner” with him so he could not do traffic duty but called in the bumper as a hazard. I got back on the freeway and just over the next hill, there was a semi-truck pulled over. YUP, it was one of those ones that hauls cars in multi-levels. This was full of wrecked cars and the driver was out on the load checking things over. I felt like pulling over and having a discussion with him!

SOOO, all this does is confirm my paranoia about driving behind those duplex trucks with vehicles on them!!!
