Kinda like that auto insurance commercial where a squirrel runs out into the road in front of an oncoming station wagon: the wagon swerves to avoid hitting the squirrel and crashes into the ditch, and the second squirrel comes out and high-fives the first squirrel. As many drivers have noticed, there is an element to society that, while powerless in their everyday lives, loves to exert what little control they do have whenever possible. These are the people who walk S-L-O-O-O-W-L-Y through the crosswalk in front of your car in order to make you wait longer, or drive S-L-O-O-O-W-L-Y down the street because they know another car is behind them. I would not put it past such people to attempt a prank like this. >That is, convenient 2nd pedestrian on the side (so can't swerve right). And to high-five the first guy after he makes the car crash. |
