No ones safe on S Cali highways

Accidents, highway debris

This week i ran into a problem with my Subaru. Literally.


Driving on the 57 freeway  in the 3rd lane i noticed a 300M driving next to me. There happened to be a pole sitting in the lane closer to the dividing lane. The jerkoff begins to veer into the line and flings the metal object into the air towards my car. Now i didnt have time to manuvre as im not Jackie Chan and dont have reflexes to dodge projectiles. All i hear is a loud noise as the metal bar hits my car. I cuss and swear but cant do much as i enter the work parking lot. I park the car and jump out and to my suprise see the pole sticking out my grill. Grill was damaged, Stil emblem toast, carbon hood cracked, HKS intercooler badly mauled on the top, AC condenser core smashed (possibly broken), and horn smashed beyond repair. I guess im lucky it didnt fly through the winshield and impale me!
