This is true.

A trip to Wrexham North Wales just joining the Wrexham bypass on the sliproad, I nearly ran over an old man in a motorized wheelchair going down the slip road, scared the Cr@p out of me. Still it was an odd thing to see.

Saw a riderless motorcycle travel down the road until coming into contact with the rear end of a parked Marina, closely followed by a motorcycleless rider running after the machine he had bump-started (while not holding on tightly enough).

Saw a van, presumably delivering some sort of dairy product made to look like a cow. It even had udders hanging off the rear bumper!!! Think I saw it on the M4.
