One memorable story is when a novice driver mistook the accelerator for the brake in a parking lot. Instead of stopping, the car jumped over a small flower bed and landed right in the middle of a group of pigeons. The pigeons flew everywhere in a panic and the driver just sat there with a stunned look on their face.
A great funny car story is about a man who tried to wash his car with a power washer but held it too close and ended up blasting off some of the paint. And there was this instance where a family's car alarm would go off every time a cat walked by. They spent days trying to figure out why until they realized the cat's movement was triggering the sensor. It was a really strange situation.
One story is about a classic convertible. The owner was driving on a sunny day with the top down. A big gust of wind blew his hat right off his head and into the back seat. But it got stuck between the seats and he had to pull over and contort himself to get it. Another is a classic car that had a broken radio. The owner started singing loudly to himself while driving, not realizing his window was down and people were listening and chuckling.
One memorable story was when a young guy came in wearing a superhero costume. He was looking for a car that could match his 'powers'. He kept asking if the cars could go faster than a speeding bullet. It was quite a sight.
One of the most memorable is a car that had a GPS system with a really bad voice. Instead of giving normal directions, it would say things like 'Turn left, you fool!' in a really grumpy voice. It made every drive in that car an adventure filled with laughter.
I remember when my friend got his first car. He was so proud of it. One day, he was driving and the windshield wipers just started going on their own in the middle of a sunny day. He had no clue what was going on. He pulled over and started fiddling with the controls, looking all confused. Turns out it was a short circuit. It was hilarious to see him so bewildered.
One sad car crash story is about a young family. They were on a road trip, happy and excited. But suddenly, a drunk driver hit their car head - on. The parents didn't survive, leaving behind a little girl orphaned. It was a tragedy that changed the girl's life forever.
Once, a friend of mine was in a minor fender - bender. He was so shocked that he accidentally honked the horn continuously for a good ten seconds. But instead of getting angry, the other driver started laughing because it was like a comical siren. It broke the tension immediately and they both ended up chatting and sharing a laugh about the whole situation.
Sure. Once, my friend was driving and a squirrel suddenly ran in front of the car. He panicked and swerved into a bush. The car got stuck and he had twigs all over him when he got out. It was hilarious.
A guy was driving and got distracted by a really large dog running across the road. He swerved and hit a mailbox. When he got out to check the damage, the mailbox was stuck on his bumper. As he was trying to pull it off, his neighbor came out and said 'Hey, are you delivering my mail now?' It was so funny and they both had a good laugh.
There's a story from a small town. A car crashed into a tree one night and the driver died instantly. Ever since, residents passing by that tree at night say they can see the headlights of a phantom car approaching and then disappearing right at the spot of the crash. It's as if the ghost of the car is still trying to complete its journey that was so brutally ended.
