Whether you're stuck in traffic and letting your eyes wander to the drivers next to you, or a billboard catches your eye, you can spot some pretty strange sights out on the road. Even if it's the same route you've taken day in and day out, chances are you've had the road surprise you now and again.
Of course, that's all the more reason to stay alert of your surroundings while behind the wheel. I really can say I've never seen anything top the 11 bizarre stories below. Honestly, I don't know how I'd react to seeing livestock not just inside an ordinary car, but sitting on the driver's lap like a dog.
That said, since the witnesses obviously weren't able to take photos of the events, I suppose we do have to take their word for it.

1. Baa Baa Bad
"Guy had a sheep in his lap while he was driving." — Reddit user
2. Shadow Boxer
"I was trying to turn into a gas station once, but the road was blocked by a dude in the middle of the turn lane, dressed exactly like a boxer (fancy shorts, boots, hands taped up with boxing gloves, in really good shape) shadow boxing. When I tried to turn, he started to box my car. I got scared and drove off… TKO." — PlantfoodCuisinart
3. Grin And Bear It
"I was driving up to my apartment one night and I thought there was a guy sitting in the middle of the road. Turned out to be a bear. I rolled up my window and slowly went by it.
"Bear didn't run or anything, just looked at me, turning his head, as I drove by at about 5 MPH." — Unidan
4. Up A Creek
"I was in the car with my friend just a few days ago and we saw a woman sitting in a blue kayak, wearing a swimsuit and sunglasses and reading a book. The kayak was in the middle of the grass median on I-43. Absolutely bizarre." — schmyd
5. Traffic Tickle
"A motorcyclist grabbed my foot that was resting on the side-view mirror and then just stared at me before taking off… Made me giggle for the rest of the ride home." — andsoithought
6. Unexpected Turn
"I had a guy cut me off — so I honked at him. I went around him and drove for another hour or so and completely forgot about the guy.
"A good seventy miles later, I was hungry and stopped off to get a bite. As I was getting out of my car, this car pulls up directly behind mine. The window rolls down — and it's the dude that cut me off.
"And that's when he did the most unexpected thing: he apologized for not looking before he got over and offered to buy my lunch. I thanked him, declined his offer and apologized for honking at him. He told me to have a nice day and he went on his way." — beefwich
7. Too Thrifty
