Today, I saw a man in a pickup truck with a dog in the passenger seat.

Nothin' strange there.

However, in the back, he had not one, but two full pallets of pamper diapers. http://i198.photobucket.com/albums/a...ucket/1-14.gif

Come on now driver, I did it all the time when I worked for Swift. Mind you I was trained elsewhere and came to them with 2.5 years experience, including 15 months in local opertaions. I used to bet people I could. I had a nice little racket going for a while.

Saw a guy with an eye patch driving down the road with a parrot on his shoulder. Couldn't see if he had a peg leg or not. :D

I saw a Roadway truck that had crashed over an embankment on I-80 in PA near Snow Shoe Mountain. At the bottom of the embankmant, the tractor and the two trailers formed a Z. I don't imagine the driver made it out alive. :sad:

Last winter I was crossing the OH/MI state line and saw a truck do a 180 in the highway. He didn't jackknife - he literally turned the truck around in a straight line while doing about 50mph.
