So, driving through Novi at about 2:30 this morning doing about 80 and doing the usual multitasking(radio surfing and eating) while driving up to State for the game today. When all the sudden the car behind me starts flashing his lights, person in front of me is hitting their brakes and I notice headlights in the wrong direction. Called 911 after he passed me and MSP was already aware of the situation but damn I've never been that scared while driving and I've done some really dumb things driving.
Has this ever happened to you? I'm not talking 1 lane each direction wrong way driver, I'm talking about a interstate or major multi lane divide between road(m-53/59, Woodward/telegraph, etc.
My wrong way driver was on I-96 between Novi Ed and Beck going west.
Also how the fuck does one end up going the wrong way on an interstate? Well besides being old and senile? How the fuck does someone get that polluted? I mean I guess they could be on lad,tranqs, or other rev drugs.
Anyways hope none of you guys ever had to go through what I went through tonight!

Happened to me one time at around two in the morning on the lodge on the way to the casino probably ten years ago. Scary situation

no dought, I'm just saying how do you get that polluted? I've been uber drunk before but never thought driving the wrong way was a good idea. If I had, I think about after 4 or 5 cars in the wrong direction and I'd be re-evaluating my decision making!

It's would be really difficult to get on the freeway going the wrong direction, logistically even. It would also be really hard to get off it once you were.

You'd have to pull over and do a U turn.

I was going to make a funny joke about this, but it turns out I was over that way at the same time last night but I missed that excitement.
