Taken on Hardgrave Road, West End. This is the dumbest thing I've ever seen a motorist do

And the passenger took the photo, not the driver.

People make mistakes

Bunnings carparks and men with long planks of wood and a sedan. It’s a spectator sport.

Don’t forget the ute and trailer with the planks going from the ute roof into the trailer

Today on Logan Reserve Road in the floodplain a car (silver corolla) came towards us in the opposite direction, passing over the double lines three cars at a time. I had to take evasive action.

You need to get out to Sunnybank

I've seen a driver do this before too. They had a boot full of stuff and I was expecting it to fall all over the road as they drove however its not even close to the dumbest or most dangerous thing I've seen a driver do.

Actually I don't think it was a mistake on his part - I saw what I'm almost certain was the same vehicle on Logan Rd at Greenslopes near the KFC at about 5:30. The boot was still open but (if it's the same van) with nothing in it by then and wondered if he'd realized.

I beeped him twice while I was behind him at 11am...

Yeah, we tried to get his attention as we pulled up next to him but we figured he didn't see. Now thinking he may have and just didn't care...

Dumbest funny thing was a couple of guys in a ute carrying a lounge along the Western freeway. We flashed headlights, beeped and waved (couldn't pass because of traffic). We got a single finger as a response. We saw two of the three cushions go before we turned off, with the third about to go.
Would have been an interesting conversation when they got where they were going.

It's not dumb to forget things.

Bottom right, there's something lying on the floor sticking out which is why he couldn't or didn't close it.

You mustn’t get out much if this is the dumbest thing you’ve seen a driver do.
I’m not saying it’s not dumb; it’s just not close to the dumb stuff I’ve seen.
Yeah, it's an honest mistake.
Boot lid is on struts, so they may have closed it ajar only for it to spring back open when driving.
Nothing a couple of toots and flashes won't fix.
Edit: whatever that thing on the bottom right is, is the culprit. If driver knows this, my above comment is wrong.
I see a dumber thing each day I ride to work.
