Hi all, this is happening more and more.
Be very vigilant when approaching bridges, especially when traveling at night. A number of motorists have reported rocks and stones being thrown from the bridges onto the road below in an effort to distract them.
Tips that might help,
* is to change lanes immediately before entering a bridge: you could avoid becoming a victim. This may work if there is no other traffic when it's safe to move between lanes
* Be on the look-out for loiterers on bridges or embankments
*Carefully reduce speed and change lanes
*If hit with a rock, drive as far from the bridge as possible
*If seriously injured, drive slowly and assess your injuries – turn on your hazards
*Know how to send a GPS message and record a voice note
Regards
