What is the most memorable thing you've seen while driving? :shock: Something going on in another car, accident, or whatever. High speed chase would be mine. Don't think the cops were going to catch the motorcycle. He was way too fast.
Man, there are so many. I remember the first time, I drove in northern Arizona. It rained early that morning. I just pulled out of the Flying J, outside of Flagtown. I remember seeing the very first elk crossing sign, with the picture of the elk. At first, I just barely got a glance at it. I thought, "what was that? :| " The second one I saw, a few miles later, I got a good look at it. I had an idea, but still quite didnt know. I finally asked one of the guys what they were. After I was told that what they were, I had an eye out for any elk crossing. :lol:
Funny that you mentioned about a motorcycle in the high speed chase. I never saw it, but on HWY 82, about 60 miles east of Lubbock, a guy on a motorcycle hit a pig. The fire, and rescue, etc were there by the time, I came through, but we were able to talk to a couple of guys on the radio, and they told us about it. I couldnt imagine hitting a pig on a motorcycle. :shock:
The most memorable experience I had happened when I was a trainee, driving with my trainer, whose handle was "Grumpy". The "Grumpy" part was more of an act; he was a Top Notch, First Class Trainer, and I will always count him as a beloved friend.
Anyway, we were rolling the desert one night through New Mexico or Arizona (I forget which it was!!)when we hit a long, long clusterf*#k. It seems that some car hauler had his cheese slide off of his cracker. He had led police on a long chase, run cars and trucks off the road,.....just like something out of one of the live Cop Shows on T.V.
When we finally waded through the traffic, the police had him handcuffed in the back of a patrol car. His portable parking lot, which contained no vehicles, was in the middle of the highway.
Never heard what exactly happened, only know that it was quite bizarre!!

Driving west through North Dakota theres a rest area and view point. It's of the Theodore Rosevelt national park. If you don't stop, you would never know that this is on the other side of the road... It's was breath taking. Oh, and there were Bison too!
Mine would have been the time I stopped at the old Tiger truck stop. My beagle had to go potty and I was walking her she went and I deceded to take her up by the tiger cages to see her reaction. Needless to say she did not hit the ground on as she ran back to the truck once that little bitty kitty growled at her.
Eventually you will see pretty much everything. Cars hanging in trees, oversize loads destroying bridges, car chases, sex in every imaginable position while moving, mangled bodies in the road, hookers female and male. You can probably write a book after a while.
