These kids now-a-days…nothing better to do with their time than to throw rocks at passing cars going 65-75 miles per hour!!! Lucky no one was seriously injured!!
Ok Freak that was funny..LOL
This actually happened to my dad’s wife about 5 years ago on 95 as well. Near the Austin Farm Road over pass. Also at night. Busted the windshield and broke her arm. I can’t imagine what it would have been like had the rock gone a few inches in either direction. I shudder at the thought.
I’m glad everyone’s ok.
I know who it was….It was Semi Arffi. He was throwing stones the same way he throws his democratic views around on here.
