And you probably never will, because anything a ghost could do to haunt traffic would just get blamed on “asshole drivers”
wouldnt that be a poltegeist. supernatural had an episode where it was a ghost truck that haunted a certain road.
It’s because there is no such thing as ghosts.
It certainly doesn’t help that ghosts don’t exist and are simply people lying or being overly imaginative.
Never made sense to me how people even remotely entertain the idea of ghosts. In regards to poltergeists especially, how is something that has practically no mass, since it’s either invisible or barely visible, supposed to exert these forces (and resist the counter-forces) to throw shit around? What are their biomechanics? They don’t have joints, muscles, tendons, ligaments, any of that shit. They are just a bit of gas, if that, somewhat orderly floating around.

Ah, but my bad, people don’t think, that’s the problem.
And you’d think there’d be ghosts walking up and down the halls of hospitals all day long
That’s because ghosts don’t keep their cars and they can’t keep up with you if you’re driving.
There’s tons of haunted roads, strange to me that you haven’t heard of one!
What? Yeah you do. The Hitchhiking ghost is one of the most common tropes!
I think OP is talking about real ghosts, not those fake ones you see in media
This comment made me exhale sharply through my nose and make a little, “hernk” sound.

he was on the side of the highway with his thumb out!
Texas addition

Its a good employment environment though, with their on the job experience they all end up being ghost cars in driving games.
Sounds like a fun creative writing prompt
Damn we need more people on Lemmy so we can make a creative writing doodad
There’s like tons of stories where people seeing ghastly figure at roadside while on their midnight drive, i’m pretty sure truck driver used to and probably still share stories about those.
There was a kid on the bike on a ride home from Canada in the middle of the night, he rode right in front of the car, I swear we went through him, but he was so close and it happened so fast. Middle of the night pitch black and just a dark corn field to the left where he would be riding, the strangest possible ghost sighting I ever had
How about hospitals? People die there every day. If ghosts exist, that’s the place where you should find them. Like, not just a few either. Nearly all of them. Can you think of another place that faces so much death that they had to build specific facilities for it.
Ask anyone who works in a hospital and they’ll tell you it’s haunted. Especially if it’s old.
Yes you do. Ghostly hitchhikers are a common story. There’s even songs about them. There’s also stories of ghost cars and ghost trucks.
Hm ok sing me one
The Ride - David Allen Coe
Phantom 309 - Red Sovine
Ok now sing it
Y’know, when you’re driving at 5mph on the freeway and your radio cuts out? That’s not the DJ messing up, that’s a ghost playing with the dials.
