This true story happened in South Africa about a month ago.
A man was hitch hiking on a very dark night in the middle of a storm.
The night was rolling by and there was hardly a car on the road. The
storm was so strong that he could hardly see his feet in front of him.
Suddenly a car came towards him and stopped. Without thinking, he got
in and closed the door, just to realize that there was nobody behind the
steering wheel. The car moved off slowly. He looked ahead and saw a
curve in the road.
Scared, he started praying, begging for his life. He was terrified.
Just before hitting the curve a hand appeared through the window and
turned the steering wheel. The man, now paralysed with fear, watched how
the hand kept appearing every time they got to a curve.
Gathering all his courage, he jumped out and ran to the nearest lights
he could see. Wet and in shock, he went into a bar and asked for
a double Scotch. After drinking it, he told everyone of the horrible
experience he just had. Everyone was silent when they realized he was
crying.
About half an hour later, two men came walking into the bar and, on
seeing the terrified man, the one said to the other, "Look, Pete that's the
idiot that got into the car while we were pushing it".
Moral of the story : When you are in a storm you can not see clearly. Don't
drink and drive!...and fear not!
