1) There was a camel in Tennessee. I swear I didn't imagine it. It was hanging out with a bunch of horses.
6) I saw a truck with a double trailer (the kind with the hinge in the middle) completely lose control after a tire blew. After careening back and forth across two lanes of traffic trying to regain control, the structure of the back trailer gave up and burst open, spilling furniture across the highway. It was pretty spectacular, especially as it looked like nobody got hurt, but I feel sorry for that driver who had a veeeery bad day.
@LouisIngenthron Last month I got caught in a freak blizzard on the interstate and saw a big rig jackknifed on the side of the road. Near the same place, a four-wheeler passing me slipped off the road onto the median, gently stopping at the fence. First time I've seen these things happen in real time.
2) On two separate occasions, I saw several cars refuse to move over for an ambulance with lights and siren on. On both occasions, I was in a deep-south deep-red state, and the license plates of the blockers were local. Southern hospitality is dead.
