Flying Manhole Covers

If you are driving around Montgomery County it might be a good idea to wear a helmet. According to this story by Dan Morse and Ashley Halsey III in The Washington Post today, a manhole cover erupted into the air “crashing through the front windshield of a passing car, according to police and fire officials.”

That could ruin your whole day.

“The driver was hospitalized with injuries not considered to be life-threatening, police said.”

Lucky.

Manholes are dangerous, maybe our legislature mired in minutea can outlaw them:
