Hard to believe any agency or contractor could leave these obvious hazards in the roadway. Every minute they are left there is the potential cause for a fatal accident.

Damn!

Ten minutes with an angle grinder and the issue is solved, instead the state will likely spend months studying the impact issues and covering their backside.

The German word for contraceptive is “Schwangerschaftsverhütungsmittel”. By the time you finished saying that, it’s too late

Glad I don't drive on the Perimeter much, but that needs to be taken care of. I like Ombligo's solution.

Huh.

Couple of weeks ago I was driving up the west wall from the airport, something very solid and about 8-10" square spun out from under the wheels of a semi next to me and went right through my front bumper. Couple of thousand in damage (covered, minus my deductible).

Don't think it was one of those things, but it was real fast, I never got a good look at whatever hit me.

I advise any operator of a motor vehicle to pay attention regardless.

BTW, they have changed the name from
Peachtree “Industrial” Blvd
To just Peachtree Blvd.

When my daughter was small, she thought it was Peachtree and Dust Trail Blvd.

Possibly a chunk of tire rubber. Once debris hits the ground and then goes airborne again you pay the repair costs.

Don't think so, it was more compact and solid than that. Really rocked the car when it hit, I thought initially it had blown out a tire (fortunately not). My best guess is some kind of construction debris.
