What's the weirdest thing you saw on the road this year? (lemmy.world)

I have a fairly long commute, so naturally encounter a lot of weirdness on the road. If I had $1 for every truck I see on the way to work, I wouldn't even have to clock in anymore. But one of them stood out amongst the others.
It wasn't the truck itself, but more what was on the truck. I kid you not, it was an OnlyFans truck. Now I know what you're thinking, some guy just put OnlyFans decals on his lifted pickup.
Nuh, uh. This was a 40 ton, full container length semi-truck with a white trailer cover with big blue letters reading "OnlyFans" on the side and back. Even the Mudflaps had it spelled out.
This wasn't for a specific OnlyFans creator, just OnlyFans as a brand itself, which I'm not sure whether it makes it better or worse.
This trailer cover must've been custom made and costs a shitton of money.
I'm not sure about the persons motivation, but I definetly respect the dedication and the execution.

Just yesterday ther was a flatbed ~20T truck parked in the middle if his lane, with a cop car with lights all on parked in front - I couldn't notice the off hand corner. I get past, with the cop waving me through to see 1/2 a powerpole just hanging off the lines, all the HV lines still intact.

Driving in to work this morning I slow down to see what had happened. A good 50m of dual tire skid-marks (on a straight bit of road), suddenly heading off the shoulder and into the grass, clipping the (now replaced) pole, coming back on to the road, and stopping exactly where the truck from the previous day was parked.

Good job on getting the truck back on the road
