: Hit a latter today!?!

I was driving on the freeway on the way home from work today in the far left lane with a row of cars on my right. A pickup truck with trash and tools came swinging into my lane in front of me and his F#$#ing latter came flying out of his truck. :wtf: I had no place to go but to grip the wheel and hit the brakes as much as I could! I hit the aluminum latter and ran completely over it, destroying the front nose of the car and messing up the passenger side of the rocker panel! :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: Cars started swerving all over the place to make room for me, I pulled over the the far right expecting the truck to stop to make sure everyone was ok?! The a hole in the truck never stoped and I had to get towed home after police report filed?! I'll know more tomorrow how much damage was done to under the car. My week is ruined. :banghead:

Sorry to here about your mishap. That really sucks that the truck didn't stop. He probably didn't have any insurance!!!!
Good luck and I hope the damage is minimal!!!!!

If you got the plate or a description of the truck and the trucker is found, can't he be charge with hit and run?
