This story happened about a month ago in Soweto, and even when it sounds like an Alfred Hitchcock tale it's real. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- This guy was on the side of the road hitch hiking on a very dark night and in a middle of a storm. The night was rolling and no car went by, the storm was so strong that he could hardly see a few feet ahead of him. Suddenly,.. he saw a car coming towards him and stop. The guy without thinking about it, got in the car and closes the door, just to realize there's nobody behind the wheel. The car starts slowly, the guy looks at the road and sees a curve coming his way. Scared,... he starts to pray begging for his life. He has not come out of shock,... when just before he hits a curve a hand appears through the window and move's the wheel. The guy is paralyzed with terror,.... watched how a hand appears every time they are before a curve. The guy gathering his strength,.... jumps out of the car and runs to the nearest township. Wet and in shock,... he goes to a tavern and asks for two shots of Brandy and starts telling everybody about the horrible experience he went through. A silence enveloped everybody when they realize that the guy was crying and.....wasn't drunk. About half an hour later two guys walked in the same tavern and one said to the other. "Look Mfowetu, that's the idiot that got in the car when we were pushing it."
