Wow.

Twice I've seen an extra tire mounted on a rim bounce out of pickup bed and bounce into oncoming traffic, but both times traffic was far back enough that drivers had time to react to what happened. With this trailer hitch, I wonder if the driver had any time to correct, or was just lucky that it hit the middle of the windshield.

South Florida still has the most dangerous drivers in the U.S. (IMO), but Houston is solidifying its title (in my mind) as having (despite the niceness of the people and the politeness of people in parking lots) on the road the laziest and most selfish drivers. Today I was driving south on I-45 and got off onto the southbound feeder road. A driver was at the edge of a driveway that opened up onto the (one way) feeder road. Rather than going to the end of the block and taking the under the freewy u-turn that bypasses the signal and puts you on the feeder on the other side of the freeway, taking that to the next exit, doing the same type of u-turn and coming back to THE DRIVEWAY BEFORE HIS STARTING POINT....but noooooo, that would be too time consuming and inconvenient for such a precious person .............. he instead HEADED INTO ONCOMING/OPPOSING TRAFFIC ON THE ONE WAY FEEDER HOPING HE'D BE ABLE TO GET TO THE DRIVEWAY HE WANTED TO ACCESS BEFORE THE ONCOMING CAR IN THAT LANE COULD BE UPON HIM.
