[ST] What's that in the road? A head?



What the heck is going on in NJ? In the past two days I have seen, in 
the road:

1) Tuesday, 6:15am. Dark. A deer splattered across two lanes of I-280. 
I'm behind an SUV. I start to change lanes and notice debris up ahead 
between lanes. I get back in the lane and then realize what I am driving 
through. "Gee whiz Wally. What a mess."

2) Tuesday, 5:45pm. Light. A piece of steel.  There's a freakin' piece 
of steel in the road, just before a curve, right in the way of a really 
good line. Not a huge piece but a piece big enough to scare and annoy me.

3) Wednesday, 5:45pm. Light. "F@CK!" The same piece of steel in the same 
spot.

4) Wednesday, 6:05pm. Light. A piece of cable lying perpendicular to my 
line of travel. I'm not talking television cable. I'm talking about a 
piece of 3/4"-1" wire rope with the frayed end about 1 foot from the 
center line and the other end somewhere off the side of the road. A 
little counter-steer and I'm merrily on my way.

I hope that those are just anomalies and not a sample of things to come.
