What's the strangest thing you've seen on the road?

Daytrunker:
Just after Xmas going south M1 just before meadowhall on a Friday afternoon still getting a move on (that wasn’t it but it could have been lol)

Opposite carriageway an old chap straw hat shopping basket on his bike cycling up the hard shoulder happy as can be lol rang the rozzers she said your the 20th caller about him, felt like saying well tell your lot to get a move on then lol

Nowt strange about that lad… An everyday occurrence in these neck of the woods :laughing:

weeto:
A man stood in a field playing the bag pipes on the A14 near Cambridge!

I saw him this week…

I’ve read about him somewhere else before, possibly on here and he either used to be or still is a regular sight.

In full view of very fast traffic, on the ring road around Milan, I saw a mans bottom going up and down at a very fast pace, in the back of a car.

I once spotted a agency fella without cheap tacky wrap round shades,no hivis on and no flashing blue earpiece in,the unit suspension was set correct and he didnt have the unit coupling light on thru the day,that was a strange sight :grimacing:

god,thats so funny,almost split my sides laughing

I past a car on the A40 near Northolt Airfield, he had a brand new carpet sticking out of the passenger window, the other end was trailing on the road behind him, to cap things off it was pouring down.
Maybe he just needed the middle bit?!

A black or silver Audi or Bmw sticking to the speed limit, that ain’t normal.
Caravan pullers pretending to be lorry drivers by flashing in lorries.
Cranes that do 40 mph max but insist on flashing you in when you have gone past at 56 or more if going down hill in neutral.
By the time he has flashed, you have covered six truck lengths or more then he flashes again.
The giant wicker man on the M5 Bridgwater is an odd sight.

A ■■■■■■■■■ guy riding a huge white stallion at the bottom of Coldharbour lane in Camberwell a few years ago. Dodging the buses etc. God knows where he had him stabled. No blinkers on and not phased at all, just walking down the road as bold as brass.

near Ilkeston.

Stopped for a loo break at tebay this morning…noticed a robin flying from truck to truck picking flies of the fronts…lol

back in the '80’s i saw an Irish 141 Scania sticking to the speed limit on the motorway! :astonished:

Three years ago in the highlands we came across a sponsored bike ride. One bloke on a unicycle. Last year a bloke on a motorbike with a Rolf Muppet helmet complete with ears flapping in the wind. Made me laugh out loud

I saw a bike ride in San Francisco about 50 of them all naked.

Driving up Quarry Bank (Quarry Bonk if you’re a local) in the Midlands. A woman was running down the middle of a dual carriageway completely naked. Cars were slowing down to have a look and she was just walking up to them and banging on the windows laughing her head off.

Dunno if it was a bet or she’d escaped from somewhere, who knows. Funny as ■■■■ either way :smiley:

Attractive girl too and with a tidy set of norks :smiley:

I remember when I was a yoof I shouted out my mates car window at a prozzer in Sheffield and when she/he/it turned round it was a bloke with the biggest nose I’ve ever seen. Had high heels, tights, the whole shebang going on.

Scary, to think that someone will be paying that for a suckenfuhk later :astonished:

thats why it was in quotes…lol

Freight Dog:
As a kid went traveling up to Scotland with the old man and my uncle to move some furniture after we moved back to England. Was in a Luton box van traveling through Black Isle about 11pm. Crawling up a hill about 10 mph in this rubbish hire transit. Saw a young woman by side of the road under a street light by a house waving a sunflower up and down. No kidding. She was dressed in sort of 60s/70s get up. Like fancy dress. Must have been about 30 feet away quite near us when she, well can only say she wasn’t there anymore. Didn’t move or disappear from under the light -Just there, then wasn’t. God knows what that was all about. I had been giving her the "V"s as had just learned that off a mate and thought it was funny. Fairy stopped me in my tracks. My old man and uncle had to pull over and smoked about 30 cigs pacing up and down :laughing: . Funnily enough didn’t bother me at 11 years old. I think I lacked imagination :smiley:

probably a wee ghostie,apparently a girl haunts blue bell hill in kent where she was killed in a car accident,

when I was a van driver I was going along the motorway at around 80/90 mph and in the middle lane was a hearse gradually closing on me,i looked away and a minute later looked again and nothing,no exits for a few miles, didn’t overtake me,i moved over slightly thinking it was behind me but nothing,freaked me out a bit,maybe a warning who knows,people may laugh but I swear it was there,never forgotten it

I saw on Thursday a wagon with what looked like tank tracks underneath the trailer.

One morning doing a Saturday shift for P&H , was driving towards Blackpool and noticed a heard of cows just walking over the over pass.
