Flying Mattresses and Falling Boats

Friday night 10PM. Driving home on the expressway. Two identical stock Civic sedans race by me going at least 90MPH. Nearing the toll now. One Civic slows down, the other keeps going at a high rate of speed, then BOOM! All I see was wood exploding into hundreds of pieces then a flying mattress. Wait! A flying mattress, oh yes! The mattress with wings hits the Civic's windshield at a angle, bounces off and is coming straight at me. I swerve hard left, pretending that the mattress was a great big cone from autox. Two wood pieces were there to greet me, I swerve right, narrowing missing the chaos. I look back... the Civic crashed up against the side railing and theres Ford F150 with the hazards on at the emergency lane. I assume it was from where the flying mattress and exploding wood headboard originated from.

Saturday afternoon 4PM. What the hell is up with all this traffic on a Saturday afternoon? I'm stuck in traffic on the expressway for the past hour. Finally I see emergency vehicles up ahead in the horizon. I inch closer and closer. Blue VW Jetta, front end destroyed, roof damage, probably flipped. Ouch. A big wrecker lifting a smashed up boat from the ditch. Wait! A boat?!?! Yes apparently someone didn't secure their trailer correctly, ergo boat falls off trailer, hits a few random cars and ends up in the ditch. Ouch.

Theres never a dull day or night in Miami traffic...
