I live in nova scotia and one night i was driving home at about 3am and i hit a large stick in the road and it got stuck under my car, I'm a big guy and could not pull it out, i was about to call a tow-truck when all of a sudden an 18 wheeler pulled up beside me, a guy jumped out grabed the stick, pulled it out an started to walk away, i yelled at him offering to give him some money, he said he was just glad to do a favor and drove off, i didn't think too much of it until a few months later a friend of a friend had the same thing happen to them late at night with an 18 wheelin good samaritine, i come to find out later that in fact a number of people around the HRM where i live, have reported being picked up hitchiking, or helped late at night by a man in an 18wheeler, somehow someone tracked the truck down from the licence plate number to find the truck belonged to a man who had diedin his truck in the 60's somewhere around the city of Halifax.

That's an interesting story, Dlfresh.

We get `highway ghosts' in the UK, too, and I've heard too many stories from credible witnesses to dismiss them all. But was the man who helped you just a good samaritan, or was he the ghost of the man killed in the 1960's?

Cool...did you saw his face??
well,what does he look like?

I love highway ghost stories. Highways are the rivers of today, and a phantom 18 wheeler would be like a ghost ship of the eighteen hundreds. never forget your helper, dlfresh!

20 years ago on a night just like this...It was the worst accident I ever seen. There was a sound like a garbage truck fell off the empire state building. And when they finally pulled the body from the twisted, burning wreck....it looked like THIS :



It was the worst accident I ever seen.

Didn't this story get covered in a Pee-Wee Herman movie? Something about "Large Marge" if I remember correctly...
