I'm really starting to believe that people are getting crazier every day. Yeah, I know, I'm a slow learner. I have no idea what this lady was thinking at the time or if she was, indeed, thinking at all.

We all get to that point where we decide that maybe it's time to clean the car out.  Stuff accumulates over time and hits a certain point where action must be taken.

Imagine, if you will, that you are cruising down a busy freeway and all of a sudden it hits you. "I must clean out my car, right now!"

Yesterday, a lady decided to do just that. It wasn't like at a carwash or even her own driveway she picked to do the car cleanout. No, it was on the shoulder of 35W at East Hennepin, Minneapolis. Not even on the top ten places I'd choose, but each to their own.

I can't fathom what possessed this woman to pull over right there and proceed to clean out her car. Her trunk appeared to be full of who knows what but I really believe there is a time an place for everything. Although the time may have been right, the place was just nothing short of a bazaar choice.

On the Twin Cities Crime Watch and Information page on Facebook many people driving by the "impromptu car cleanout" had comments.

Flo D commented;

"Traffic got a lil backed up cause she was walking out in the highway."

Josh D commented;

 "Glad nobody got hurt[.] This [is] even more messed up then a good olde fashion Florida story"

It seems the Minneapolis Police also thought this was not only a strange thing to do, but also worthy of slapping the handcuffs on her. There's no information on what she was being detained for or charged with.

LOOK: See how much gasoline cost the year you started driving

To find out more about how has the price of gas changed throughout the years, Stacker ran the numbers on the cost of a gallon of gasoline for each of the last 84 years. Using data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (released in April 2020), we analyzed the average price for a gallon of unleaded regular gasoline from 1976 to 2020 along with the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for unleaded regular gasoline from 1937 to 1976, including the absolute and inflation-adjusted prices for each year.

Read on to explore the cost of gas over time and rediscover just how much a gallon was when you first started driving.
