Classic from the Mrs!
Discussion
A scary one...
My wife noticed I was using the cruise control and decided she wanted to try it when she was driving. So, with her at the wheel, we were merrily bumbling along with the cruise control in full swing.
This being the M25, it wasn't long before a queue of slow moving traffic appeared in the distance. Getting closer and closer, I asked my lovely wife why we weren't slowing down.
Cool as you like, she just said, 'I can't find the brake pedal.'
Oh, well that's all right then, carry on.
I had to get her to look down so I could point it out to her.

Kinda sweet that they think like that though ain't it.
Mine refuses to believe that if she gets on the M25 and just keeps driving she'll be back where she started. And she's a teacher!
I was working in call centre and convinced one of the girls that unicorns were real and lived in the Australian Outback and that it was actually the unicorns that stole children not dingos. Mind you this girl was really thick she didn't know what broccoli was and once told a customer we didn't sell roses (we worked for Interflora).
Playing pool once, one of the less talented girls was having a bad game. Someone pointed out she was using a right handed que and should use the left handed one in the rack. She got it and took a shot, got it in and said it was much better!
It was my turn to pick up the gang (we all lived in little villages) so I go out the furthest place and pick up the first girl. Getting in the car we set off and she says "you picked up steve yet?"
Finally, my wife once asked me if it was dark because of the weather or dark because it's night time. (she runs multi million contract for a major telco). She also told me once that a dear 'didn't even look' after it ran out in front of us and how do they train the hippos in that BBC ident.

With ex at Gatwick, about to check in luggage
Ex starts frantically panicking and fretting.
"What's wrong?" I enquire
Ex: "My hair straighteners... they're in the suitcase" (bear in mind, they are corded and require a plug socket)
Me" "Yes?"
Ex: "What if they switch on during the flight and burn everything?"
Me:
followed by (accompanied with the rest of the queue) laughing hysterically

Surely in the case of "just keeps driving" it depends on which lane she favours? Does your lady drive to the left or the right?
Several years ago, when Princess Margaret was still alive, I was asked by a female friend "Is Princess Margaret older than the Queen?" When I said "No, because if she were older than the Queen, she would be the Queen," she replied "Duh! How could Princess Margaret be the Queen when the Queen is the Queen?!"
We got there in the end, but it took a good ten minutes.
