A Truck Driver Sees a Priest on the Side of the Road. A truck driver sees a priest on the side of the road hitchhiking. Being a very religious man he decides the right thing to do is is to stop and give the priest a ride. So, he pulls over and asks the priest if he would like a ride. The priest responds thank you Son I would love a ride and hops in. As they drive along they get to talking. The truck driver has been having a hard time and decided that now would be a good time to let some stress off of his chest. He talks about how he is going through a divorce. How his wife had been cheating on him with a lawyer who ended up defending her in court. How she had won the court case and had taken his kids from him. This goes on for awhile and he can feel himself feeling a bit better, but just as he is about to end his story he sees a lawyer on the side of the road. With his nice shiny shoes and expensive brief case. The truck driver in the midst of his story can't contain himself. He sees the lawyer and goes into a rage and swerves towards the lawyer. Right before he hits the lawyer he thinks to himself he can't do this he has a priest in his truck. He would surely go to hell! So, at the last second he tries to swerve out of the way. Upon his attempt to swerve out of the way he hears a thump. In a panic the truck driver looks at the priest and says I'm sorry father I don't know what came over me. I just lost myself in that moment. The priest looks at him and says it's alright son I got him with the door.
