Made it back home. Only had one object hit my car on the way back. Couldn’t lane change to dodge, but didn’t hit windshield. Not sure if it was a car part or what only saw fly into our lane .3s before we got hit.

This is pretty normal driving around ATL. There were dozen cars off the side of the road before I even got into the city. I think I counted 3 dozen cars with no bumpers left total. All those parts go somewhere.

Saw 3 truck tires going down, but everyone dodged those when I drove by… I guess the first day of heat helped tires blow out today.

@thendrix The best vehicles I've seen for similar conditions are the 4Runners and Tacos with protective bumpers and skid plates.

Road debris is just part of living in Georgia. All the traffic to and from Florida ensures that even a fresh road surface will likely have a chain or something heavy from a semi to scar it within a month or two and it will probably leave a trail for maybe 50 miles or so.

Ah GDOT I remember you having workers in mostly the same place for a few years. Pot holes are now considered dangerous and GDOT can actually get work done relatively quickly. The retread problem is a bit more scary when it goes through windows. They also take out tie rods and seemingly have the ability to selectively hit a radiator. It's carnage on the roads but it's not as bad as it used to be. There is something satisfying about seeing a Mercedes Benz hit an American pothole and immediately having to get off the road.

There's never a dull moment.
