The 'Left Exit 12 Off Ramp' meme, popularly known as the Car Swerving meme, features a blue highway sign indicating a choice between a straight path and a sharp right exit. The image depicts a car drifting aggressively across the road to catch the ramp at the last second. While the original video of the car skidding was filmed in Norway and uploaded to YouTube in 2013, it didn't become a viral meme sensation until late 2017. It serves as a visual metaphor for someone abandoning a sensible or 'correct' option in favor of a sudden, impulsive, or often self-destructive alternative. It is a staple of internet culture for highlighting relatable human tendencies to choose the fun or easy path over the logical one.
