I hate crap in the road
Damn, I lost a push mower out the back of my B2000 last night going through there on the way home but by the time I got an exit and made my way back around all I found was a bunch of debris and a demolished push mower.
Suprised it didn't do more damage than described, sorry

Here's a scary one for ya.
A friend of mine was cruising down the fast lane and came upon a drop in bedliner from a truck. He essential drove into the back of it and had to come to a stop with no headlights, and his front tires sitting on something that slides VERY well. There was no hope seeing a black bedliner at night at highway speeds.

I hit a ladder on I-10 at night and it knocked a hole in my oil filter. It was only running for about 5 seconds after I hit it, but the car only had about 1/2 qt the next day when I changed it. Whole *** of the car and the guy behind me on a Harley got a sweet coat of oil. That **** coming out at 180* and 60psi makes for a pretty sweet plume behind the car. 
We both pulled over and he didn't even realize he was covered in oil due to him hitting the ladder too lol.

hog hunting at a lease, my friend was too drunk and made a poor shot on a hog with only three legs (had seen mf peg-leg on the game camera for weeks)
the next day on the way to taco loco, we hit the same hog leaving the lease in the truck doing 60. My friend was so happy... We drove it back to camp and cleaned it LOL

Pain's trailer About 2 years ago I was bringing his car trailer to my house. My daughters were following me. On 288 south after Pearland turn off, they called me and said the license plate has fell off the trailer. I pulled over and we walked back where it had fell off. We found a plate that was folded up in a little square...We could not tell whose it was. Pain's plate was nowhere to be seen...I got home and put the folded plate in my vise and pried it open. It was Pain's plate. How it got folded up so many times I will never know..Car tires must play hell with road trash....

ok, one more, I need to get pictures. A buddy was following another buddy. The guy in the first truck was pulling a trailer. He had stacked wood scraps up in the trailer and put the trailers spare on top of the scraps. Both guys forgot to tie it down and are going down the 60+ mph. First guy hits a bump, spare came off, landed upright, rolls. Guy in second truck hits the spare square in the center of his truck. It sent the second truck airborne, complete truck off the height of the tire. They pull over, to see the front center of the second truck caved in and tire marks from one end to the other underneath. I just gave him an extra bumper about a month ago. Last time I saw him, he still didn't have it installed.

I have hit the plastic peice off of ford trucks tailgates the top little plastic liner I guess you would call it. I hit it loud noise watched gauges nothing no other noise was about 15 miles from my house. So I keep going start to turn off of 1788 and I hear this scrapping noise... Only did it when I turned right. Get home check my tires nothing is there (its dark this peice is black) so I lay down look under my car and there is this peice hanging down about at my y pipe... I was shocked at first and thought it was my exhaust hanging down. But that peice hit just right and got stuck on my y pipe clamp bolt lol.

Needless to say i didn't get slowed down much befor they locked up! **** that was scarry!
I was driving down Mosilee Rd. at 5:00 a.m. one morning when suddenly a horse jumps out from one side of the road where there is a stable. I couldn't avoid it since the road was just a tad slippery from probably an earlier rain or a very heavy dew I can't remember for sure but I hit that thing which woke me up with a shot of "wake up call" that any gallon of expresso could never do. I turned around and drove back to try to see if the horse was ok and maybe look for the owners but all I could see in the middle of the road was a pile of **** about a foot high. I never saw the horse again.
