A guy was hitch-hiking on a very dark and stormy night. Suddenly he saw a car roll slowly toward him and stop.
He jumped into the back seat and closed the door. Then realized there was nobody behind the wheel. But the car started slowly rolling forward again.
He was really freaked out when he noticed that a mysterious hand appeared just before every curve.
The guy jumped out of the car and ran to the nearest town. In shock, he went to a restaurant and started telling everybody about the horrible experience he just went through.
Then two guys walked into the same restaurant. Looking around for a table one said, “Hey, look, isn’t that the jerk who got in the car when we were pushing it?”
