With over 200 million registered vehicles in the US alone, accidents and road rage are bound to happen. Some of us are decent, and some are pretty reckless drivers, but a good piece of advice is to 'drive like nobody else knows how to.' With distracted driving being the number one cause for incidents, the people in our list below contribute to this matter quite a lot. Now, we've all seen at least one PSA about the dangers of texting and driving, but how often do you see someone playing trumpet while operating a vehicle?

Yes, there are people out there reckless driving while distracted by some genuinely outrageous activities and lucky for us they were caught on camera. The individuals in the following photos could benefit from reading a book on how to drive more safely, unlike the bad driver in one of the pictures we don't recommend they read it while driving. This is our reminder for the next time you're out on the road, keep your eyes open for some genuinely bizarre sights because you never know what you will see on the highway. However, for now, you can scroll below! And don't forget - safety first!

I really would like to know the story about that, for I see no valid reason to drive with a shoe on your mouth. Well, I see no valid reason for most of the idiocy people do on this trend anyway.
