Close call

[Mrnemo]

So i'm driving down a 3 lane road( city street), I'm on the far left lane, traffic is somewhat light. In the middle lane about 8 -10 feet infron there's a pickup truck (regular sized) , and he has 2 long couches in the back. 1 sitting up right , normal, the other turned upside down sitting ontop of the other couch. Of course this idiot didn't even bother to tie it down. Doing about 35 and got a bad feeling and before I could pass him by HOLY CRAP the couch decided to do a olympic somersault straight out back and says HI as it passes by me while still performing the somersault, oh if that couch had landed at an angle it would've been another visit to the bodyshop. Luckly no one was behind me or that moron. sad thing is I see this kind of crap all the time here, why I once saw this idiot in a van with a mattress on top and what brilliant locking mechanism did he use, A rope ? as normal average IQ indiviual would use, Nope his freaking hand where's the cop when you need one.

Thats just crazy! I hate when people don't tie **** down and you see **** fly off there truck you just want to speed up and rip them a new one. Since where talking of close calls. Last night driving home about 3 am I'm going around this turn and the brand new Monte Carlo ss starts to go sideways in front of me. I'm not slipping due to the huge curb weight that 300 has. So this car is sliding in front of me. When he smacks the wall to the left then I hurried into the middle lane, avoided him and keep driving. In my review mirror I see a pick up truck smash the **** out of the Monte. Well thats what you get for doing 60 on black ice. Yea that was a close call!

glad nothing happen to your car or any other car for that matter common sense would tell me to tie the couch down but i often wonder why they call it common sense because it's not common at all

Your guardian angel was keeping an eye out on you that day. That is insane! People are such idiots when loading things in their trucks. I’ve seen several large objects come flying off cars and trucks that could do some real damage or even kill someone if they hit the cars behind them.

I am glad to hear that the "load" missed you..it could have been deadly.

Ultimatecarman those photos.. me! I just merely say people amaze me!
