Beware the Mad Trucker!

Yesterday while driving up the road I glanced into my rearview mirror, because as a cautious driver, it is important to be aware of the traffic around you. Right, isn’t that what I learned way back in driver’s ed?! I was quite surprised (and a little scared, I admit!) by what I saw behind me. And because this is one of those times where I actually did have my camera with me, instead of all those times when I say, “Gosh, I wish I had my camera!”, I was able to capture this frightening sight. Beware the Mad Trucker!

First sighting:

Hmm… Is that what I think it is?

Oh my… He looks really angry. Or hungry. Or both.

EEK! He’s catching me!

Really, this was the highlight of my drive yesterday. Made me giggle. And yes, I know I shouldn’t be trying to take pictures while driving. But how do you pass up an opportunity like that?! I may never see the Mad Trucker again. And then it would just be a silly story I would tell the grandkids while I knitted and rocked in my chair. And they’d all nod and say, “Sure grandma, we believe you…” all the while rolling their eyes at my silly little fable. Well now I’ve got proof. So take that!

  1. So funny…I’ve seen a truck that had teeth similar to this before too, and I must admit. I laughed! :)

    Nothing like simple things to make the day. Glad I’m not the only one that multi-tasks and takes pictures while driving!


  3. it would have been awesome if it tried to eat your car…
