Whisper is a fun little iPhone app that lets people anonymously "confess" something. BuzzFeed has taken to posting groups of funny, odd, or shocking "confessions" from the site, and I've been wondering how many of those had to relate to driving. So, I downloaded the app, punched "driving" into the search, and this is what I found in about a half hour (a half hour! not even scraping the surface of the archives!):
I hope it's not actually in a classic GTO. Makes you wonder about what's happened in used cars, though...
I call bullshit. But it's funny, funny bullshit nonetheless.
They let anybody online these days, don't they?
And from the other side of NASCAR-related stupidity. Yes, NASCAR tried that. People died. They made the cars safer. People still died (ever hear of a fellow named Dale Earnhardt?). The cars were made even MORE safe. Nobody's died since.
Someone who doesn't get the concept of NASCAR.
Hoarding doesn't stop at the front door.
I've heard random drivers yelling random things out of their windows at me while walking.
Funny how that works.
Yeah, that's a depressing way to start a road trip, let me tell ya!
People are pretty direct on Whisper. Of course, I'd say it depends on the person AND on the car, really.
As a man, I gotta say it's really sexy to see a woman work on her own car.

That "someone" should be the police in the first case. For second offenses that "someone" should involve child protective services.
Oddly, that will probably attract more men...
Umm, yeah, if someone could turn this person in before they hit a pedestrian, that'd be greaaaaat...
Doesn't anyone know that Jesus can't drive?
Bonus points for being in the pastor's car. Major bonus points if it was the pastor's daughter! Also, check the backseats with a blacklight before buying a car.
"Moral support!" *Tears of laughter*
Kia = Killed In Action.
...
I've had those thoughts, too. I wonder how many car accidents weren't accidental.
I had a work training class with a woman who I didn't even notice until she fired up her modified Mustang next to my car when I had my window down. I wonder what the woman who wrote this Whisper was driving?
Nothing makes a man feel more alive than a V8 and new car smell.
Your driving is bad, and you should feel bad.
Unfortunately, it's probably just a regular Chevrolet.
Again, there has to be more information in these requests. Someone that looks like Sherman from American Pie trying to get it on in the back seat of his momma's Kia Rio just isn't going to be the same as the buff guy from the gym in his Benz.
Depends on what passes me. Getting passed by a Ford Festiva 11 years ago still stings.
Niiiiiiice.
My worst roadkill fear is getting my car hosed as I hit one. There are a lot of them in my part of the country.
This is how real life happens. Cars do not explode on the second shot into the general area of the trunk.
Buying a car? Check the front seat with a black light, too.
That's a happy birthday!
Is this REALLY a thing, or are mutliple people coming up with the same lame Mario Kart joke? I NEVER see banana peels on the road when I drive.
Or maybe it's the other way around, if she's giving road head, THEN it's a great relationship.
That's a sad, sad way for a '58 Corvette to go.
Come to think of it, just don't buy used cars.
I've never heard this complaint before, but I suppose to a lot of women it would be an issue. So maybe men are NOT making it up that a cool car can get you laid?
