One night, while I was in high school, I was in town late and got permission from my mom to stay with a friend in town that night instead of coming home (I forget now why I was out that late), which was a good 20 or 30 minute drive away.
It was midnight by the time I made my way to my friend's house, knowing she was out that night until later. To get to her house, there's two bridges close to each other. At the time, they were one-car bridges. As I came to the first bridge, a girl in a prom dress suddenly appeared directly in front of me, situated in the middle of the bridge. I slammed my brakes on, but didn't swerve (thankfully...that would have possibly killed me in the drop off). My car came to a stop just short of the second bridge about a car length and a half past the first bridge. I turned around, afraid to see a dead body or blood or something. That's when I realized that nothing had hit my car, and I remembered seeing her face as her body rushed through the hood of my car, and then directly THROUGH me.
I started shaking so bad I could hardly drive, but my friend's house was just around the corner (literally). I parked in her driveway, ran inside, and hid under the covers trying to stop shaking until she got home and asked me what happened. When I described it to her, she turned white and said she'd just been told the week before a story of a girl that had died on that bridge her prom night. Somehow, her bf (who was driving) lost control of the car and they'd gone off the bridge into the creek below, killing her. Supposedly (since I haven't done any research on this) he survived. Her ghost appears some nights on the bridge, still in her prom dress, as though trying to signal for help, often getting run over in the process.
