UNKNOWN OR OTHER
MY CAR'S SUNROOF EXPLODED FOR NO APPARENT REASON. I WAS DRIVING ON AN UNCOVERED STRETCH OF HIGHWAY AT ABOUT 60-65 MPH, AND SUDDENLY THERE WAS A LOUD BANG ON MY ROOF, FOLLOWED BY WHAT SOUNDED LIKE GRAVEL BEING DUMPED ON MY CAR. A FEW MINUTES LATER, I OPENED THE SUNROOF SHADE AND SAW THAT THE SUNROOF HAD SHATTERED. THERE WERE NO CARS OR TRUCKS IN FRONT OR ALONG SIDE MY CAR WHEN THIS HAPPENED - SO IT WASN'T DUE TO GRAVEL SPUN UP BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. I WASN'T ANYWHERE NEAR AN OVERPASS - SO THERE'S NO CHANCE SOMETHING WAS DUMPED ON MY CAR. THE TEMPERATURE WAS ABOUT 74 DEGREES - SO NO EXCESSIVE HEAT FROM THE SUN.
