it was shocking, i couldn't believe it at first...the ladder exploded when i drove over it,nobody behind me was hit by any of the debris, that i could tell. yes. because the ladder was fibreglass, it dissentegrated upon impack,still bumpy,but not real bad.i did grease my pants,but luckily i was about 10 minutes from home. tore up my front apron,most of the plastic body parts on my right front and damaged my rt. wheel and tire+broke my windshield. they are do'n a tear down on the front of my 05c2s and will check for any body and alignment issues. took my 05c2s to sterling collision in tustin,ca. recommended by newport auto.

DAMN!!!!!!!!!

broke the windshield?!?!?!

thats serious biz my friend! Truly sorry to hear that.....

I did something similar on the WAY HOME (!!!!) from the dealer.

car had 4 miles on it!.....it was my CL500. ran over a cone (unavoidable) on the 101 and totally gaffled up my front end. It really hurt cause the car was 15 mins old!!!!!

i was heartbroken.

you are in good spirits though, so we wont worry about you.

your priorities seem to be in the right place......its just $$$$ right?!

best of luck!
