None of these were exactly during rush hour:

I-35 south in Dallas and a guy in the middle lane driving a truck has his right front tire fly off and heads down the highway another 2 miles or so. Sparks everywhere and the guy manages to get his truck to the shoulder.

635 in Dallas heading East. Traffic is basically stopped and this guy on a motorcycle on the shoulder going at least 120, popping a wheelie and standing up on the seat.

San Antonio on 281 heading south. Saw a car kind of swerving a little and as I pull up to pass him I see the guy driving doesn't have a steering wheel and is steering with vice grips on the steering column.

In Dallas at a stoplight at night. Guy in the passenger seat is sitting there with sunglasses on. The girl he is with who is driving is giving him a nice treat while they are waiting for the light to turn green.

Brother saw this on his way home in Houston a few months back

Reverse works

Two items:

--Had just moved to Raleigh, NC for a new job. First day, I left way early so I'd beat traffic and to make sure I could find the office so as not to be late. Not much traffic on the road, I'm driving an SUV and come up on a Mazda Miata and see a girls head bobbing on a guys rod.

--Was working a 3rd shift at a place in downtown Memphis. As I'm driving to work, a 70s model convertible caddy pimp mobile pulls up along side. Driver is a black guy with a gold grill in his mouth who was the owner of a local bar called "Raiford's Hollywood" and in the back seat were 3 big black women and a lone white guy. The white guy was Silky O'Sullivan who owns a famous bar on Beale St. They were lovin' all over him. Just a weird scene really.

Driving down Maple Ave in Dallas years ago I looked over at a bus stop and see a black guy with a healthy fro that has a pair of women's panties on his head and his fro is popping out of the leg holes so that he looks like Mickey Mouse. Loved it so much I went around the block to see it again. Here's to ya, panty head, wherever you are!

Saw a homeless dude get his ass kicked by a doctor. It was either a doctor or a male nurse, but he was in scrubs and driving a mercedes. This homeless guy (HG) is acosting a woman in the median of the road near the medical district in San Antonio. Not sure if the girl was HG's woman or a stranger. Well, this doctor had seen enough while waiting at a stoplight. He gets out of the car and yells at the HG to stop. The HG takes exception and rushes doc like he is going to do a two hand shove. The doc does some double hand slap so the HG's arms cross his own chest and he goes past him. HG turns back around and doc kicks him in the nuts and straight punches him in the face. That was the coolest ninja **** I'd ever seen in real life . It took about three seconds.

Corner of Preston and NW Highway in Dallas - stopped at light, first row. DART bus had just stopped and a few folks got off. Older lady starts walking across NW Highway towards the office buildings in the crosswalk. Cement truck comes flying thru the intersection turn lane and runs right over that poor lady. I immeadiately averted my eyes. But I can still see her purse and lunch bag lying in the road next to her lifeless body. Truck driver got out and started puking in the middle of the street. I sat there stunned through I don't know how many light cycles before a cop came and started moving traffic thru while waiting on an ambulance. Not a pleasant experience for my morning commute.

A few years before that, driving southbound on DNT in same area, saw a car and a motorcycle having a road rage incident. Car swerved in front of bike, slams on brakes (probably going 60-70 mph). Biker goes headfirst over the car, landing on road. Car calmly goes around the guy lying in the road in front of him and speeds off. I'm first car behind them. So I hit brakes, flashers in middle lane, stop and get out. Cars are flying by in both other lanes as he and the bike are in the middle lane protected only by my car. I called 911, turned around and the biker had drug himself over to the median. Bleeding profusely...from multiple bandaged wounds on him arms and legs and head(!). Incoherent. Shorts, barefoot, t shirt, no helmet. Cops/Fire show up. Guy starts talking. He had been in a previous road rage accident 3 days before, and was taking his new bike for a ride. Was 23. He asked me to call his mom and tell her he was going back to Parkland. DPS called me an hour later to tell me that the driver who caused the accident had stopped and turned himself in at DPD HQ.

Just this morning I saw an Indian women in a Lexus on Independence in Plano actually use her turn signal and make a right turn on red without someone honking at her first. F'ing crazy!

I believe all the stories on this thread, except this one.

It's San Antonio. Don't know if it counts as weird there.

The DC metro was a constant source of entertainment back in the day.

A mentally disabled woman sat down near a black woman who was taking up two seats. The mentally disabled woman started muttering under her breath about how rude some people are...especially fat people who take up two seats. The black lady was having none of it and they started arguing. She had obviously had a long day. She finally got up to leave and the mentally disabled woman yelled "stupid n****r!" The entire train let out a collective "oooooooohhhh!!!" We were all on her side until the racial slur. The black lady then smacked her senseless and exited the train. I had a great view of the whole debacle.

Would have been way better if you took video.

He would have just taken it in vertical and ruined it.

I used to watch the same drug dealer sell drugs every day for a year on Elysian Street in Houston (the ghetto between downtown and the Hardy Toll Road).

The 1st time I ever realized what was happening, there was a wreck that caused me to sit in the same spot for about 45 minutes in front of an old closed, rundown store. There was a giant black man standing there (I nicknamed him "Big Boy") eating a box of Chinese takeout.

A few minutes later, I glanced back at him and saw him hand his takeout box to a guy walking past him at a fast pace. It looked weird, so I kept watching. A few minutes later, a different guy came from behind the building & quickly walked by him and handed him ANOTHER Chinese takeout box. At no point did any of these people ever speak or even look at each other.

About 2 or 3 minutes later, I saw a different guy walking toward the intersection from a block or two away with his own Chinese takeout box. He eventually walked past Big Boy at a fast pace. You had to be watching closely, especially since it happened so fast and the two didn't really look at each other, but the new guy and Big Boy exchanged their Chinese take out boxes when the new guy passed by. The new guy kept walking straight until he was out of sight. A minute or two after he passed, the very 1st guy I saw walk by Big Boy walked by again, and Big Boy handed his takeout box to him as he passed. And then the cycle began again.

I now know that Big Boy had drugs in his takeout box and switched it with the buyer who had cash in his box. The guy who picked up Big Boys box afterwards was the bag-man, and the other person who brought a new box was the delivery man. The whole operation was smooth and almost invisible.

I drove that way nearly every day for 2 years without ever noticing it even though it was right in front of me. But after I realized what was happening, I saw Big Boy out there nearly every day for the next year or so until I changed jobs. Sometimes he had a fast food bag, sometimes he had a styrofoam to-go box. But he almost always had some kind of food container in his hands.

The crazy thing was that it was out in the open, facing the road during rush hour. The traffic moved pretty fast there usually, so I guess they figured nobody would notice...and they were right other than the time I was stuck there for 45 minutes. It was also weird because there were no restaurants nearby, so those food containers were kind of out of place...but it still flew under my radar.

I was stopped at a light westbound on Richmond at loop 610. A pickup truck slowly rolls up beside me to my right. I look over and the driver is leaning against the window with his eyes closed.

I think to myself, "holy crap, is that guy having a heart attack?" Right at that moment a female's head pops up in the window, looks around, makes eye contact with me, blows me a kiss and gets back to work.

My dicsman didn't have video capability, but it did have BASS-BOOST.
