Today, a wasp flew into my car. In my frantic attempt to get away from it, I got pulled over and had to prove I was driving sober. FML

To all those asking, I am highly allergic to bees and wasps. When I discovered I was in an enclosed space with it, my mind wasn't thinking "pull over and let it out", but rather panic. When you're scared of something, the mind doesn't always make the most logical decisions. I ended up weaving on and off the shoulder and hadn't realized a cop had his lights on behind me until he sounded his siren. I quickly pulled over and got out of my car. I had to take a breathalyzer and passed, and after explaining my ordeal, the nice man helped me get the wasp out of my car. And to those who say roll the window down: Have you ever successfully tried to get an insect out of a moving vehicle via window? I've tried this on multiple occasions and I either can't get the damned thing to go near the window, or if I do, the wind knocks them back into my car. :/

I initially read that as "flew into my ear". Still makes sense, though...

As you open the window for the cop did the wasp fly out casually like it was never there?

Or you'll get away with the DUI, but the cop will make you stand at the side of the road awkwardly until you sober up enough to drive off...

That happened to my sister once. They made her take and entire sobriety test. Complete with saying the alphabet backwards.

I would fail then. I have to write it out before saying it backwards and I don't think they'd allow that! :(

That "recite the alphabet backwards" is actually a trick. If the person being tested is willing to try, it indicates they may be inebriated; most can't do it backwards, as we've never practiced it. So saying "I can't" is the best way to go. I've had this confirmed by more than one traffic school.

Should have pulled over before the officer forced you to, OP. I once drove a ways with a spider on my bare toe (I was wearing sandals), and didn't let myself panic until I had found a place to stop the car. There isn't a bug on this planet scarier than a collision.

I don't know mind. Have you seen some of those big ass spiders?!

Such a bad ass.... Tell me what happens when the spider is crawling up your leg under your shorts while you're driving

I'd be pretty surprised to have a wasp in my car, and that would make me drive like a lunatic.

Well, the first thing you should do is pull over then get the wasp out. This is not something you try to do while driving. A reluctant YDI

That's probably how the wasp got in the car to begin with...
