Both you and her were lucky, random piece of metal flying from under a truck would require way too much reflex so glad you're ok.

Thanks, I now know that I was very lucky and the car damage will get repaired. I'm going to start taking the smith system driving skills to heart now. The funny thing is our work just had a refresher course the day after the incident on driving safety, the scary statistic is most drivers have an accident every 18 years.
It happened on the freeway right before the offramp to my work in downtown LA. It's a pretty hazardous area as people from the freeway are trying to get off and another freeway merges where people are trying to get on.
That's pretty freaky that it happened to your wife before. Is this stuff really that common!?! Hope it's a one in a million event.
Be careful out there guys, it's a jungle...
