A thing I just saw.

Post by GORDON »

Was city driving, slowly creeping up on a red light, since the fucker in front of me was doing the same. I hate creepers. Just get up there and stop, goddammit.

Anyway, in the lane to my right, a Ford Escape was also creeping along, maybe .5 mph, and I saw a 20oz, plastic pop bottle rolling across the road. It had a cap. And it was timed just right, so the rear wheel of the car rolled right over it.

The plastic bottle didn't pop. The car/wheel went up and over the bottle.

Sheesh.

That's 3500+ lbs of car... wow.
It's not me, it's someone else.

I bet the front wheel, with engine weight, would have popped it.
