A ghostly tale

A man stood on the side of the road hitchhiking, on a very dark night in the middle of a terrible storm.
As the night went by no cars passed him. The storm was so strong, he could hardly see a few feet ahead of him. Suddenly a car appeared from the rain, barely moving toward him. Without thinking, the guy opened the passenger door and jumped in.

The guy immediately realized that nobody was behind the wheel. The car started slowly moving forward. The guy looked at the road and saw a curve coming his way. Scared, he started praying, and begged for his life. He was terrified, when just before the car got to the curve, a hand appeared through the driver's window and moved the wheel. The guy, horrified, watched how the hand appeared every time before a curve.

As the car continued its slow journey, the guy saw the lights of a tavern. He gathered strength, jumped out of the car and ran into the tavern without looking back. Wet and in shock, he asked for two shots of tequila, and started telling everybody about the horrible experience he went through. A silence enveloped everybody when they realized the guy was crying and wasn't drunk.

About half an hour later, two guys walked into the same bar, and one said to the other. "Look Bubba, that's the jerk who climbed into the car while we were pushing."
