Default Doh!!

What's the most stupid thing you've done while driving your car?

Mine: One night I'm driving in the pouring rain, and I see road kill in front of me--a huge chunk. It was to late to swerve, so I tried to strattle the chunk of meat. My car didn't clear it, and it got caught under my car and dragged for about a 1/4 mile. There was this loud "BANG!" and the roadkill flew out the back of my car in three pieces.

Visions of different parts shattered by that big bang floated through my head, so I decided I'd pull over and see if any damage was done. I pulled over under a bridge to keep out of the rain, grabbed my maglight, and looked under the car. The chunk got caught on my exhaust, and all I could smell under there was burning hair and flesh. Fortunately, I didn't see any damage done, so I got up and tried to open the car door. It was locked...and the car was running!

Here I am, in the middle of the night, in the middle of nowhere, in the middle of a downpour. I weighed my options, and promptly broke my passenger's side window with the maglight, unlocked the car, and drove home. I told my friends and family (and insurance co :ugh: ) that someone tried to break into my car and I chased them off.

I think the dumbest thing to date had to be when i was bouncing my hydros in my truck on Broadway and busted a line sticking it on 3 wheel and had to drive 9 miles home like thath:

That will teach me to show off
