Glad I drove today.

I was following a landscaping truck on I-75 in my car when suddenly a long-handled shovel launched straight up out of a vertical storage rack. It started tumbling end-over-end on a trajectory for my windshield. I instantly accelerated and in my rear view mirror I saw it slam into the road shovel end first.

Yikes!

Back in the early 70's, I was following a heavily loaded logging truck on my R/75 BMW. The load looked suspect to me so I increased my following distance and moments later several 40' logs came off the truck, rolling across both lanes. Being observant pays off.

... and yikes!

Glad to read you are both here to write about it.

These experiences both sound like some manipulated Russian Youtube videos.
