Today, while trucking, I got stuck in traffic on a congested highway. After 15 minutes of mind-numbing boredom, I glanced down at the car beside me, only to witness the driver changing her tampon and flicking the old one onto the highway. I can't unsee this. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was driving home from work when I saw the woman in the car in front of me throw something out the window. Only when it landed on my windshield did I realize what it was. A bloody tampon. FML
Today, I was stuck in traffic on the highway and decided it was the perfect time to pick a humongous booger out of my nose. While carefully examing and admiring it, I failed to notice that the owner of my company was staring at me from the left lane in complete and utter revulsion. FML
Today, I was faced with the inevitable horrible circumstances which lead me to put in a tampon on a moving city bus. FML
Today, while driving, I saw a car pull over with its hazard lights on. I went to see if they needed help, only to see the guy was jerking off to something on his phone. FML
Today, while I was driving home, some jackass in an open-top sports car overtook us and flipped me off. Just as I overtook him in turn, my wife rolled down her window, pulled out her tampon, and launched it at the kid. I'm not sure who was more horrified, me or him. FML
Today, I walked into a public restroom and, to my utter surprise, saw a lady squeezing blood out of used tampons. We made eye contact, she continued, and I ran out in horror. FML
Today, while driving on the highway, I got stuck in a traffic jam. Upon glancing over at the car in the next lane, I saw it was my ex as of a week ago. We sat in barely moving traffic right next to each other for half an hour. FML
Today, I just pulled out of the fast food drive through, only to pull right behind a septic truck. Just as I was about to dig into my food, I noticed it had a handy window about a foot round. I had a stare-down with a turd until I could pass. FML
Today, while on the way to Florida for spring break, I pointed out to my mom a bright blue car in the rear-view mirror. As the car overtook us, we both got a horrifyingly detailed view of the driver jerking off her passenger. FML
Today, while driving, we pulled up at a set of traffic lights next to a huge truck with live animals inside. Curious as to exactly what animal, I wound down my window to see if I could hear them, just in time for the truck to take off and cow shit to fly in my face. FML

How are some people so unhygienic? I just don't understand!

Wow, there is absolutely no excuse for that. I can somewhat understand it if she suddenly just started her period and didn't want to stain her seats, but at least go behind a bush or something. However, you said she was changing it, and threw the old one out the window. So she was too lazy and unclassy to wait until she got to a rest stop to take care of that. Absolutely disgusting. FYL OP.

What a classless pig she is.

I get that sometimes you hit an emergency where you'd have to change your tampon (I have had to do this before, but at least I keep a blanket, tissues, and plastic bags in my car, so even if anyone realized what I was doing, they couldn't SEE it - it would have been two hours before I got to a rest stop, and nothing on either side of the road but grass). But throwing it out the window? Really, really unacceptable. Who doesn't keep a garbage bag in their car? Or at least some tissues?

Honesty, I don't keep any sort of trash in my car. And I certainly would not keep a used tampon and put it on any surface in my car. That would defeat the purpose of changing the tampon in the car to prevent staining the seats. And most tampons are biodegradable. It's not like people are out walking around on highways so it's really not that unhygienic. OP just happened to look over and see it. Seriously, everyone is completely over reacting to this FML. I see much grosser things on a daily basis.

That's why you put the used one in a plastic bag, not take it out and put it on the dashboard. What that woman did was really quite disgusting and depending on if she actually threw it or just dropped it out the window, it may have hit someone elses car. I wouldn't want to be cleaning that shit off.

@#116 - It's true, some drivers prefer to avoid having a trash bag in their car and only carry tissues if they are sick. That doesn't change the facts: 1. She changed her tampon in full view of anyone around her; OP was a adult trucker but he could just as easily have been children inside an SUV. 2. She tossed her used tampon out the window! Most people hate seeing dirty diapers or used condoms along roads, so why is a used tampon any more acceptable? 3. It doesn't matter if most tampons are biodegradable; it won't disappear immediately. A child looking out his/her car window could see it. It's disgusting and if it lands on the asphalt highway or shoulders, it will not degrade as quickly as it would normally. Plus, many tampons are not biodegradable.

I hope no bird or other animal chokes on that used tampon. She should pay for littering beside the highway.

That's just ridiculous. Unsanitary. Outright disgusting. I'm sorry, OP.

I wonder if she stuck a fresh one in afterward, and what sorry sucker got to witness that!
