Debries from freeway damange bumper

So i am driving in the slow lane trying to save gas. I paid 2.44 per gallon a couple days ago. I'm doing about 65ish and I am about 2 car lengths behind the chevy truck in front of me. I have my stero up pretty loud listening to talk radio about Arnold for govenor and i suddenly hear a thud. The thud was a gray 10 gallon plastic container that fell onto the highway in front of the truck. Right after i hear the thud, i hear a loud sanp. The chevy in front of me shattered open the plastic container, spilling liquid (probably water???) everywhere and breaking the contain into pieces. I see the pieces fly everywhere, i quickly check my left sholder and swerved (car handles good hehe). I thought I had avoided most of the debries, but i guess not as i heard pieces of plastic go under my car. There was another car behind me. Once i was safe, i looked back and saw the pieces hit the car on the windshield and a gant piece hit the side mirror of a car and folded the mirror. When i got home, i took pix. I'm going to see if i can fix this myself.:'( :'( :'( This little piggy cried all the way home. sorry its long, had to vent.

That's not too bad...but does suck man. I have a few chips in my bumper already from damage when driving long distances. I'm seriously thinking about plunking down the coin for the clear bra...might be worth it in the long run...
