I hear a lot of anecdotes about things people find on the highway. I have family members who say they found a free couch on the highway. A friend of a friend said they found a board game set on the highway. Then today a family member was talking about a cat they adopted, and I asked how she ended up with one (she doesn't like cats), and she said "oh we found her on the highway, we're surprised nothing happened to her".

Is this a common thing? What's the most unexpected thing you found while on the highway?

Yo find strange things on the Autobahn. Which still wonders me the most are single left shoes. And they are pretty common. I mean, how?

I once found a gold bar. That was pretty neat, especially after one year where i was told i became the owner of that die to neglecting from the previous owner.

And one amazing thing was: i was a qualified person at a car accident and helped there. During this i lost my corporate id card. Surprisingly, it was found and sent to the company after 3 years. I was flabbergasted. I still have this id just because of this story.

That's sweet. It's nice to know highways bring the community together.
