Here’s a tip to having a better day. If you’re ever kidnapped and forced to drive, start breaking traffic laws. A man in Florida was in this situation recently. He’d been held hostage for two days before the three men that kidnapped him forced him to drive. He intentionally broke driving laws to get the attention of a highway patrolman he saw.

It got scary though when the officer only gave him a warning and was going to walk away. So the kidnap victim made a hand gesture to the cop. He made his hand look like a gun, pulling the trigger. The patrolman got suspicious and got the guy alone. That’s when the man told the policeman what was happening. The three kidnappers were arrested. Experts say that he did the right thing, that you’re supposed to try to draw attention to the situation.
