So I'm driving on the highway... and I hit a HAY BALE.

Yes, a hay bale.

I reside on the east coast, in and around a major city but not too far (close zipcodes) from rural areas that have bigger farm industries.

I'm driving home from my programming class and as I look at my phone for one second BOOM, I see all this hay flying behind me, other drivers swerving around and I continue to drive and there are MORE hay bales all over the road.

Saw at least 3 other cars pulled over that hit the hay bale.

I'm gonna need to get a new bumper, new brackets for everything and a new (Under engine bay) belly guard
This kids is why you don't get on your phone and drive. Your car will get hit by a hay bale 🤝
The best I did was 2 foxes and a road width wooden plank.
Well shouldn't be on your phone op, be glad you didn't run someone over.
A possum ran out in front of my car the other night. Thing was the size of a cat and slammed on my brakes smh.
should listen to your teachers when they taught you not to look at your phone while driving.

😠😠😠😠
Wow thats sooo unlucky, but a great story to tell ur children lmaoooo

If your bumper is polyurethane you can use a hair drier to heat it up and pop the dent out.

It's not a dent, it's comepletely wrapped under my car.

Front sway bar (thick metal) cut straight through the bumper.

It's actually a pretty serious looking blow to the bumper for such a shitty cause
And that folks is why you dont look at your phone when driving. RIP.
At least your not like me.. I ran into the fucking wall on the highway and ran up a $2000 repair bill.
Do not deal with me off site. I never deal offsite unless I have verified via PM.
That sucks. A lot of people in my city look at their phones while driving. We live in a connected age.
Also.

I wasn't texting and driving, I didnt even turn my phone screen on. When I say looked at my phone I mean I physically just looked to see where my phone was (cup holder) and boom.
I'm a plenty decent driver I don't use my phone while driving, nor do anything else but really drive.
I also drive stick, ergo I'm forced to be intuitive and sharp
Ugh, I can't stand it when I'm just driving down the highway, minding my own business and a fucking hay bale ruins my day...
Keep calm, chive on.
