OMG I got hit by a f***in rock

I was on the I-280 today heading to the mall to get my friend a birthday present when this van infront of me changed lanes and kicked up a @#$#@ rock. The rock put 3 deep scratches on my hood and chipped my windshield. Should I call the insurance up? I'm really pissed right now If it wasnt' for my girlfriend I'd be going on a rampage right now.

Bad luck cloud. Find out how much to fix the damage to the hood. It may not be worthwhile to make a claim.
A windshield claim shouldn't affect your rates.

Sorry to hear that,
same thing happened to me except it didn't damage the windshield,
but ripped a huge piece of clear bra off.
luckily the hood wasn't damage, all I needed was to replace the bra.
