If you do file a claim or get any information on it pass it on I'm curious as to what the response will be. So far my windshield has two small chips nothing that will be worth filing a claim over yet. I'd just like to see the jackasses clean the road up!

I only drive down that area on the weekends and luckily I have not had any chips from that road yet. But I do feel for you guys that do.

How long does it take to repave these roads? Hasn't CalTrans been working on these roads for awhile now?

Non Freeway directions.

Just a suggestion....
From Oakland everything is fine until St Stephens.

Take the St Stephens exit. At the top of the exit, turn left and cross back over the freeway. Make a right at the stop sign onto El Nido Ranch Rd. Follow that along the freeway. Don't get back on 24 at Acalanes, continue on El Nido. It will cross back under 24 and end at Mt Diablo Blvd. Turn Left onto Mt Diablo and continue through Lafayette until Pleasant Hill Rd.
Obey all speed signs and NO revving through Lafayette.

Get back on 24 to WC. You will need to merge left 2-3 lanes to be on the correct side of the split. Look for the Ygnacio Exit.

You're welcome.
It was nasty tonight. At least everyone is slowing down for the mess.
