Not exactly the kind of scenery you expect when passing near a landfill, but hey, Texas always keeps things interesting, right?

What started as a simple drive turned into an unintentional game of dodgeball for local drivers, with flying trash bags and random bits of litter swirling in their wake. Now, you might be thinking, “Don’t mess with Texas.” Well, Texas just messed with you, in the form of airborne garbage. It’s ironic, it’s frustrating, and frankly, it’s one of those moments that makes you want to rethink your life choices.

Was the driver aware of their contribution to the scenic highway experience? Probably not. But for those of us unlucky enough to be behind this moving trash tornado, it felt like we were in a twisted version of an action movie—except instead of dodging explosions, it was rogue napkins and snack wrappers.

After all, Texas pride isn’t just about boots and BBQ; it’s about keeping our highways clean too. Let’s not let a landfill's leftovers ruin the ride.
