Driving is statistically more dangerous than flying, so it was only a matter of time before a threat reserved for the skies [Snakes on a Plane], and also a train in one very bad movie sequel [Snakes on a Train] invaded our cars. We’re talking about @#$% snakes in a @#$% car.
CBS Los Angeles KCAL 9 reported Angie Guerrero was driving in Santa Clarita when she felt slithering around her leg. She looked down to find a large King snake had made its way to the driver’s seat. While the King snake looks like its poisonous cousin, the Coral snake, it is harmless–though no less terrifying when surprising a driver cruising down the freeway.
Guerrero admitted she almost hit another car, but moved to the shoulder safely and called 911. California Highway Patrol took forty-five minutes to capture the snake from its hiding place in Guerrero’s dashboard.
