Drivers in [insert location] couldn’t believe what they were seeing when a woman’s car sat motionless at a green light — for three whole cycles. When police showed up to check on her, the situation went from worrying to downright bizarre.
According to officers, the woman was found asleep behind the wheel in the middle of the intersection, engine running, music playing softly in the background. After several knocks on the window, she finally woke up — and instantly hit them with a wild excuse.
“She told us she wasn’t asleep,” one officer said. “She said she was meditating and trying to ‘manifest focus for the road ahead.’”
Police say the woman appeared disoriented but uninjured. When asked to step out of the vehicle, she reportedly launched into a five-minute monologue about positive energy, deep breathing, and how she’d just been “resting her eyelids.”
“I swear I was just visualizing safe driving!” she allegedly said.
Officers conducted field sobriety tests before taking her in for further evaluation. No one was hurt, and traffic finally began to move again after the incident.
The story has since blown up online, with commenters both laughing and shaking their heads:
“That’s the most 2025 excuse I’ve ever heard.”
“Manifesting your way out of a DUI, bold move.”
“I’m using this next time I’m late to work.”
Police used the moment to remind drivers: if you’re tired, pull over safely — not in the middle of an intersection.
Because no amount of “manifesting” can replace a good night’s sleep. 😬🚗💤
