What if ramming the trailer had resulted in severed limbs?
Then they shouldn't have been out there blocking the highway chained to it.
Oh, I got a story about that, and it involves an uncle and my grandma.
You see, a cousin was in the car with them and told me what happened.
They were kinda traveling together with my uncle and her brother but got separated, but then grandma comes across this man waving his arms
in the middle of a two-lane road
out in the middle of nowhere.
"What's that?" Her mama sez
It's a man out in the middle of the road waving his arms.
"What are ya gonna do?"
"It's a highwayman, I'm gonna hit 'im!" And she steps on the gas and heads dead at 'im..and as she's passing, and he dives out the way, her mom says
"Hey, isn't that so-and-so?"
They didn't stop until the destination 40 miles down the road.
She 'bout killed my uncle. It works better with my cousin telling it and sounding just like they did.
"soft docile voice" "Hey! What's that in the road?"
"Srs Grandma voice" "It looks like a a Highwayman"
"soft docile voice" "Oh no! What are we gonna do?"
"Srs grandma voice with teeth clenched" "I'm gonna hit 'im! Hang on!" Skeeeert! Vrooom!
As they blaze by...
"soft docile voice" "Hey! Isn't that my grandson-in-law?"
I know my grandma was embarrased about that.
