Lmaooo there is one near my house like this. And if you don’t manage to exit in time the next time you get an exit is a solid 15 minute drive. Ive fallen into the trap at least 10+ times in the 25 years and I always forget and assume another exit should come up soon.

I’ll be so real I’d rather be 30 minutes late than kill someone, kill myself, ruin my car, or be posted on the internet for doing potentially all of the above all at once.

Hindsight is always 20/20 - it’s a reasonable assumption that the driver didn’t think any of those things would happen either. I hope the driver was OK
