I'll agree it's flat spotting of the tires. While not SUPER dangerous you should get the tires checked out asap.

This is what happens when you either brake real hard to lock up the tires or go sideways. How do I know? I've done it plenty of times ot my autocross tires

If not the wheel weight, could it be possible that you might have warped a rotor?

I'm glad you're okay. I used to deliver auto body paint supplies and driving that much would make me tired or zone out. You got to keep yourself alert.

someone side-swiped me on the interstate last summer. i kept driving my car because it only scratched up my back passenger door and everything else seemed fine. about a week later my car was doing the same thing but i kept driving (stupid). about a week after that the tread ripped off the back drivers side tire while going 65 down the interstate.
not fun. go get it checked out.
