The man who called the emergency line in Nebraska to report that a vehicle was driving the wrong way on the highway was absolutely right. It&#8217;s just that the driver was <em>him<\/em>!<\/p>\n<p>The awkward video was shared by the Lancaster County Sheriff&#8217;s Office this past Thursday, detailing an anything-but-routine traffic stop that took place back in March. And it all started with an earnest call from a concerned driver.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/images.toofab.com\/image\/9e\/5by4\/2023\/09\/05\/9e780e8ddcda45d78945ecd0c1147e71_xs.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"240\" class=\"img-fluid article-block__img-fluid\" \/><\/p>\n<h4>            Husband Abandons Wife During Connecting Flight for Being Late &#8211; And The Internet Is Taking His Side          <\/h4>\n<p>911 dispatchers received a call from a man telling them that someone was driving their truck &#8220;on the wrong side of&#8221; the highway, and that they &#8220;nearly ran him off the road.&#8221; Both parts of that statement were true &#8230; just not how the man thought they were.<\/p>\n<p>The shaken driver was able to give authorities a pretty concise location of where the frightening incident occurred, which allowed them to arrive on the scene relatively quickly and pull over the truck.<\/p>\n<p>As soon as the lights flashed, the man figured out what was really going on. It took the officers a few moments to fully realize what had happened. All they knew was that they nabbed the guy driving the wrong way.<\/p>\n<p>On the video, the officer asked the man if he knew why they stopped him. &#8220;Yeah, because I was on the wrong side of the road,&#8221; he said, explaining that he must have missed his exit.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/images.toofab.com\/image\/cc\/5by4\/2023\/08\/31\/cc66003c86494bcd915ae2e8c38a03a0_xs.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"240\" class=\"img-fluid article-block__img-fluid\" \/><\/p>\n<h4>            Florida Mom Accused of Using Parody Website to Hire Hitman to Kill 3-Year-Old Son          <\/h4>\n<p>Realizing fully what had happened, the man confessed to being the one who&#8217;d called 911, thinking that the truck that nearly flattened him was going the wrong way, when it had been him all along.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I thought someone was on the wrong side of the f&#8211;king road, bro,&#8221; he told officers.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;But it turned out it was you?&#8221; the deputy replied.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Yep, like a dumbf&#8211;k,&#8221; the driver admitted.
