[OC] Just Florida things

Saw this on my way to get some lab work done this afternoon.

I decided to keep driving for a few reasons:

  1. The driver immediately got out of the vehicle, and I saw nobody else in it. They didn't seem hurt.

  2. The insane maneuvers they made had me thinking drugs were potentially involved.

  3. The vehicle behind me was pulling over.

  4. I can't currently afford rescheduling fees for my appointment; but I did all the accident in.

Looks like that driver did this on purpose. Took a sharp right turn straight into the barrier. When the barrier held, decided to go straight backwards into the other barrier. Guessing that she didn't try again since her vehicle was probably disabled by that point.

Either suicide attempt or mental health issues. Sad either way. Hope she gets the help she needs.

Usually, when a vehicle makes a sharp turn like that, it's because something broke. Either the tierod or the ball joint.
