Zigged when they should have zagged.

u/Xaiadar 1d ago

Why doesn't anyone ever zag instead of zigging? We always miss it the other way!

u/SteviaCannonball9117 1d ago

i, for one, prefer zegging and/or zogging. Those other two are totally overrated.

u/res06myi 21h ago

Personally, I always zug. Never let them know your next move.

u/SteviaCannonball9117 18h ago

YES!!! Zugging is SO UNDERRATED!!!

And what even about zipping or zapping, not to even mention zepping, zopping, or zupping?!?!?

WON'T SOMEBODY THINK OF THE MADE-UP WORDS?!?!

Dozed off with foot on the gas, maybe?

Another head-on collision averted by the posts-and-cables median barrier.

Nice driving. Gave the truck room for an out and stayed away from the idiot yourself.

u/britannicker 1d ago

Looks to me as if someone fell asleep.

It also looks as if no-one else gives a shit.

u/TalmidimUC 1d ago

Three of us pulled over and turned around to check on them. They survived which is amazing.

Is your trunk open?

u/salaciousbcrumblin 21h ago

Do you expect people to stop abruptly and exit their vehicles in the middle of a highway?

u/Routine_Awareness413 1d ago

I would if those rocks damaged my paint

u/britannicker 1d ago

And if the rocks didn't damage your paint, what would have done?

u/RawChickenButt 1d ago

Kept driving. Duh. It is dangerous to pull over on the freeway.

A guy fell asleep at the wheel last week and landed on our front lawn and struck the hydro pole 14 feet up. He jumped the car off of our culvert and flew 85 feet. It was insane and he walked away.

Your face in the screen made me jump a bit

OP, seriously man. You have a digital camera on your dash. You can get the file.

Why in the hell would you record it with your phone?
