    White panel vans are great. You can make them virtual sound proof. Plus just hose them out.

    At least that's what I heard. ;)

    That was when the Knights of the Road would stop to help. These days you better have some kind of communication. Some of those highways out in the middle of nowhere, you might not even see a sheriff.

    Put your wedding dress on, and light yourself on fire. Lay down in the middle of the road. You’ll get some help

    Lol!!! The reason I said put a wedding dress on and light yourself on fire and lie down in the middle of the road, is because years ago I went to school with a guy who actually did that. The guy was mental. He hid it well. His fiancé broke up with him. So he put the wedding dress on that they had Purchased, Went out in the middle of the road and lit himself on fire. He’s still locked up in a mental institution to this day. Lol
