Last night, on Dec. 21, I was driving home to Azilda from Chelmsford, when I met a lineup of vehicles.

As they drove by, a big chunk of ice and snow came flying up in the air and across into my lane. This big chunk of ice struck my truck, breaking my grill. It also broke my horn mount and looks to have bent my radiator.

At a quick estimate, it caused approximately $1,500 in damage to my truck. So I ask all of you to clean snow and ice off your vehicle before you go out on the roads.

I have been guilty of not cleaning off my entire vehicle before, but now that I have experienced the damage it can cause first hand, I can guarantee that my vehicle will always be clean of snow and ice before it moves.
