And boom goes my windshield

So I am driving along on 95 south a little after 9 pm on my way to the Wishing Well for a drink and a few games of darts. I am approaching Woolbright at cruising speed of about 75 mph and I hear this BOOM -- I thought gun shot, but I really have no idea what a gun shot sounds like and then I see this thing fly over my windshield back and to the left, back and to the left off my truck and onto lanes farther left of me. I was in the middle lane.




Whatever it was it skipped right on my hood and collided with my windshield just below the drivers side windshield wiper leaving a crater and spidering my windshield from top to bottom, left to right and back again. Oh, and I could hear it continuing to splinter.

That line in the front, that is the direct hit, followed by the ricochet into the windshield.

Inside view - notice the pieces of glass...

Yeah, so I figured I would just call it a night and head back home.
