Was going down I-75 South today about 75mph. Next thing I know the car in front of me swerves left and there in front of me is what looks like a aluminum 6 foot ladder laying in the road. I tried to miss it but didn't. It hit pretty hard under the car. I am thinking well I wonder how many tires are going to go flat and what's left of the front splitter. I looked out my back window and saw it flying into the middle lane and people swerving to avoid hitting it. The car felt ok but I checked tire pressure readings and all was well there. Steered left and right like Nascar to see if that felt ok and it did. Got home a few minutes later and walked around car and there was to my complete surprise no damage. The only thing I could see was grayish hash marks on the side walls of the tires. Talk about a lucky break! Guess these cars are built pretty tough or maybe I was extremely lucky. Look out for ladders in the road
