An eight-legged passenger caused a rollover crash Wednesday in Portland, Oregon that totaled a car, according to local authorities.

The driver lost control after a spider fell from the rearview mirror, causing her to panic and swerve off the road into a ditch, reported news station WSBT.

Man, I could keep my s*** together driving down the road being stung by bees, but I’d have to dig deep to keep same if a big ole hoarkin’ Shelob plopped onto me...

Black widows and hobo spiders are the two seriously venomous species found in Oregon.

Have you ever seen those house centipedes? Now those put horror in my heart when I see them.

I beg to differ.

I was bitten three times by a small spider in my sleep at our house in Ga and it looked like the large bullseye from a tick bite. I ended up in urgent care and they gave me antibiotics. My sister was bitten by a hobo spider and some of her skin at the bite mark rotted.

I’m surprised this doesn’t happen more often.

Little Miss Muffet
Sat on a tuffet,
Eating her curds and whey;
Along came a spider
Who sat down beside her
And said, “Yo, b*tch, what’s in the bowl?”

I’d crash too if iI saw a 12ft spider behind me.

We have black widows here? Brown recluse and hobos, yes...

[Tax-chick]

That’s what it said when I searched.
