A man facing a litany of charges for allegedly driving the wrong way on a Las Vegas freeway offered a truly bizarre explanation for the motor vehicle misadventure when he told a judge that the ghost of NASCAR legend Dale Earnhardt Sr. told him to do it. The troubling incident reportedly occurred on Friday afternoon when, police say, Daniel Asseff entered the southbound lane of highway I-215 and began heading in the opposite direction of traffic. The incredibly dangerous drive caused multiple car crashes, though fortunately no one was hurt in the chaos and Asseff was subsequently arrested.
