Mattress on the highway: what to do?

I almost forgot about hitting a traffic cone once. That was so loud and hit really hard. It was a cone that someone else already must have hit and I was going fast on the freeway. It actually made some marks on my car. Sucked.

 

No matter how cool, smart and tough the slobs in the pick-up or van seem, keep your distance if anything has potential to come loose.

 

you slow down imagining where the road would be and break/swerve off the road at a slow enough speed.

 

Take a nap on it?

 

I just hope i never end up in this kind of situation...

 

You could put up a sign.

"Attention: Gypsies, mental patients and illegal immigrants! Mattress NOT for sleeping on!"

Actually, fuck it. Why not let them sleep on highway in the dark!

 

There was a saying on the radio in Phoenix AZ for rain... Liquid lobotomy. One of those old guys that should have stuck with driving his golf cart around got in his car and was on the highway when it started to rain, it started getting much worse so he stopped his car to wait it out... He stopped right in the middle of the road. I think it was about a 20 car pileup.

R.I.P.
