Its not wacky, its down right insane for someone to have hallucinations while driving. One of the cars was hers and she was driving. Someone innocent could get killed.
Hammer,
You just brought back a frightening childhood memory. I remember when I was about 12 we had several nieghbors carpool some of the kids to and from school since many of them worked various shifts and no one wanted their kids to take the bus (actually the school was close enough to walk, but there was a very busy highway that would've needed to have been crossed and no parent wanted that either). There were three moms that drove. Mine and two of my friends. It was OK when my mom or one of my friend's moms drove, but when this other kid's mom drove the carpool who was a Pentacostalist, the other kids bowed out. I was stuck riding with this woman and I found out why no one wanted their kids to ride with her. When she picked me and her son up from school, she peeled out of the school driveway, took the first corner practically on two wheels (this was in an early 70's model Oldsmobile) and took off down the busy highway driving with no hands on the wheel singing and shouting, "We're Gonna See Jesus in the Sky." I was scared shitless! 
I had recently gotten an "A" on a school project I did that showed the ascension of man which she had heard about(What's ironic here is that even though I got an A on the project, it couldn't be displayed at the science fair because teaching evolution was STILL PROHIBITED in South Carolina in 1972). When she came screeching to a halt in front of my house , she told me that I should "burn that satanic picture I drew for school" and get that "ape business out of my head".
When I told my parents about the incident, she never drove the carpool again. My parents just shook their heads and told me that my friend's mom, "didn't have good sense".
When I relayed that story to my mom and the parents of the other kids, she never drove the carpool again. One other nieghbor reported the color, make, model and tag number of her car to his friend who was highway partolman.
