Wow, I frequently drive, using my knee, while eating lunch or dinner.
When I commuted to college and had an 8am class that required a 2 page essay for homework every day, I wrote the essay on my way to class, driving with my knee for 30 minutes. (Very little traffic in my area)
Most surreal accident was on I95 just North of Richmond. Cars were flashing their lights in the oncoming lane to warn us of something happening; freezing rain was predicted and I was glued to AM radio, listening to reports. I immediately threw on my flashers and started slowing down. By the time I was down to 30 mph, I was sliding. Cars were bouncing off the guardrails everywhere... everything looked like it was in slow motion as cars bounced from guardrail to guardrail until they eventually went into the median or off the side of the road in a break between guardrails. People in SUV's were blowing by me (I was in 4 wheel drive and managed to slow to about 5 mph) only to begin spinning, as if in slow motion, and losing car parts as they smashed into the guard rails. There had to be 100 cars that wrecked in a 2 mile stretch, if not more (that's when I hit the offramp, and went straight to the first motel.)

I've seen...
A brand new Porsche 911 Turbo...towing a trailer with a wave runner on it.
A Mazda MPV attempt a U-turn at a speed that an Elise would have had trouble with. It ended up on its roof right in front of me.
A home window A/C unit mounted to a board facing into the slider window on an old pickup, complete with duct-tape insulation around the edges
A utility truck half-up on one of those 4 ft high concrete dividers. The driver's side was way up in the air, and the passenger side was still on the ground...the whole thing looked like it was going to tip over any moment. The front drivers' side wheel had been completely sheared off from the impact.
An old pickup, pulling a trailer, going the wrong way on an expressway at 11PM. :Q
A MASSIVE deer carcass that appeared in the left lane on the expressway, JUST after rounding a bend. I couldn't avoid it, and trucked over it in my Trans Am at about 80 MPH. The impact bent the driver's side tie rod all to hell, messed up my air dam, screwed up my brakes, and got rotten deer meat and fur all over my car. I had to pick deer guts out of my brake calipers with a pliers - and my car smelled like rotting meat every time the exhaust warmed up for a good 8 months after that .

This just happened a couple of hours ago. Driving back from an appointment, I saw a horse running along the side of the highway. No rider, no saddle .. just running along the shoulder. It then decided to run across the highway, but didn't make it. Lots of damage to the car, and the horse died.
Saw a power transformer explode while I was waiting at an intersection. Darn near left me blind. Anyhow, it was wild.
Anyhow, it was wild.
A family of Mexicans rush across the freeway. This down in Southern California. No joke. ****** dangerous.
I've seen that too, Only at about 60mph though. It was on a typical highway, early in the morning, and the wheel came off.. kept rolling at high speed of course.. down through the ditch then back up onto the other side of the expressway...then finally off into the other ditch. I'm glad noone got killed. No cars in an accident.. just the car that lost the wheel managed to get on the side somehow.
Last weekend I saw someone cutting antlers off of roadkill on 80-90 in Ohio. Doesn't seem like a bright thing to do on an expressway where everyone is doing 80, its raining out, and you have to cross to the middle to cut them.

If anyone hasn't heard that, they should listen to it.
It is a guy calling his boss, saying he will be late to work. He is in the middle of leaving a voice mail message when suddenly he gives the play by play on a traffic incident occuring infront of him.
I was laughing so hard I had tears coming down.

Woman in the outside(fast) lane, eating Quesadillas(sp>) and shareing them with her lapdog. She was the sole ocupant and was doing 70Mph. Houston.
A wheel coming off a towed mobile home on I-20 on the west side of Atlanta and rolling across several lanes of traffic at 60 mph.

I was in the car with my grandfather when I was about 10 and the road he lives on goes underneath I-79 a pretty big distance down. They were doing construction on the overpass crossing over my grandfather's road at the time-- anyone who lives in Pennsylvania can attest that there are indeed only 3 seasons: Cold, colder, and construction. Anyway, we drove underneath the overpass and not 10 seconds after I heard the biggest crash ever. We turn around to see what it was and the overpass had collapsed onto the road. LUCKILY, and this is a miracle as it's a big overpass and a decently busy road, no one was hurt as no one was ON the overpass at the time, nor underneath it. Had we left 10 seconds later though, we'd be underneath it. Was definitely one of those miracle moments.
I'll try and see if the news story is online... it was a while ago.
