Default Picture this...

Alright. Heading to D.C. today and I get to the part of Route 50 that is just before Metro. TERRIBLE bumps and expansion joints on this one particular section. Guy in a mid-eighties Ford F-150 has a ton of crap in his bed (Toys, lumber, assorted hoarding paraphernelia). He is about 10-12 car lengths ahead of me when he hits one of the huge bumps, which sends his cargo flying everywhere @ 70 MPH. stuffed animals, VHS tapes, blankets etc. are flying towards me and the other cars beside me. He keeps on going, meanwhile I have VHS tape streamers on my mirrors and a shirt stuck to one of my wper blades. The streamers stayed with me until 20 minutes later @ my first light and once I reached the parking garage, I discovered the head of a stuffed turtle wedged in my air dam. Just another typical commute...............

lmfao, I hit a plastic garbage can off the back of a "road repair" truck (no damage) and a racoon which launched my lower grilles.. but that's hysterical.
