Default car feels bumpy

so today I noticed that when I was driving the car, on the driver side it would be real bumpy. it felt like my front driver side tire was flat but it wasn't. when i go fast the bumpiness gets worst when i slow down it fades away. it is a real irritating feeling, the road would be smooth and clear but the bumpiness is still there and is real bad. any one know what it could be? would it be safe for me the drive the car still? i have no clue what it could be?? help??

wait i worded it wrong. the driver side is bouncy every second. on the passenger side it's not. what could it be? worn shocks? tie rod? help? it is a really annoying feeling when driving. i literally bounce almost off my seat every second or 1/2 a second and it drives me crazy.
