Editing In Transit

The players are driving along the highway when a deer jumps out in front of the car.  They hit it, hard, taking damage in the process. The deer is killed instantly. 

When they look at the deer, they see it has a fifth leg, growing from the side of its stomach, dangling uselessly. Apparently, it was born that way. But on their way to the next location, every other animal seems to have an extra appendage or mutation. Crows have beaks on the sides of their necks, squirrels drag an extra useless rat-tail. Not every animal, but a lot of them — and they didn't notice until now.

The last thing that they see before they arrive is a kid walking along the side of a road with his fishing pole over one shoulder, with his younger brother holding up the useless club of his third arm.

The investigator is sleeping in the back of the car, with another investigator driving. The investigator in the back drifts off to sleep. When he wakes up, there's somebody else driving the car — he looks like one of the other investigators, but he isn't. He turns and smiles reassuringly at the investigator. If the investigator looks out the window, he sees that they're driving along a road lined with endless bare trees on either side, the color and texture of bone, submerged two feet deep in black water. When he looks back at the driver, it's the original driver — and the outside is normal.

The investigators drive underneath an overpass, but one of them sees some kind of bundle tied up in the metal girders above their heads. If they can figure out a way to get the bundle down — since it's directly over the highway — they find the corpse of a teenaged hitchhiker, mummified in road tar. Embedded in the road tar are snippets from dozens of maps, each of them with the only nearby town violently scratched out in black ink. If the investigators go up the road towards that town, they find that the road has been deliberately sabotaged, with the road signs torn out and the road itself covered with potholes. If they go further, then they find out why the town cut itself off.

They find out big time.

The investigators are driving down the highway when they see a car by the side of the road. The doors are open, but the engine is still running. If the investigators look around long enough, they find a single shoe — brand new — where the ditch ends and the woods begin.

While driving down a long, flat stretch of highway, the driver glances up at the rear-view mirror and sees a very unfamilar landscape (the burning pits of hell, the blasted fields of a nuclear wasteland, a mind shattering alien landscape; etc.).  When they glance back, it's the normal passing of the road behind them.

While driving down a two-lane road at night, the driver notices the dashed lines in the middle of the road taking on different shapes - crude letters or symbols that are slight variants of road dashes.  They may spell out a message, or direct the driver to turn a certain way - or simply stop appearing once they have the driver's full attention.

-The investigators drive to an isolated location.  When they get back into their car, it doesn't start.  Upon further investigation, they find that the entire engine is missing.
-Variant:  the engine is still present, but all of the fluids in the vehicle (gas, oil, transmission fluid, radiator water, windshield-wiper fluid) are all gone - or replaced by blood.

-The investigators park for the night -- trying to get some sleep in their vehicle. The next morning, one or more of the investigators are sure that where and how they parked (location, orientation, etc.) is somehow different from where they actually woke up.

-While traveling via subway, the players come across an old subway car setup as a memorial within a nearly derelict station.  It is tended by an elderly individual whom everyone takes to be senile or mad.  Each night he goes about as a subway conductor for the car which never runs.  He seem to fully believe that the car still conducts passengers to their destinations.  Perhaps it does.

-While travelling in a train, telegraph poles by the track briefly take on the appearance of crosses with people horribly crucified on them.
