Default Why me...!

Travelling home from wrk this morning, engine nice and warmed up, so you jusy have to have a 'lil play with ya boost don't ya

Anyway, nice bit of road, going along nicely

Some car coming the other way going quite slow, thought a bit odd, car behind it slows down, as soon as I get near the car the follwing one tries to overtake making me take avoiding action, have to go onto grass verge and hit a bump (not nice with 17's and lowered anyway) all I hear is GLASS shattering and bits flying up in the air on drivers side!

Now, I thought WTF is that as I have no proper indicators on front of car an have morrette twing lights

Pull over down road where it's safe only to find one of my NEW morrette lights has been smashed to smitherines!!

I reckon he flew a stone chip up and crack light therefore causing the bump to shatter it or something very similar

Really pissed off because that mean I have to find yet another item to go on my car when I don't really need the hassle

I kinda had a feeling the driver behind him was going to do something, but wan;t sure what
I had slowed down to about 40ish mph when this happened

just surprised that the headlight smashed, could the shock of the suspension have smashed the light by itself?
