Road debris

Road debris are things that people accidentally leave on the road, like papers, plastic bags, cans, and pieces of metal. Even rocks, tree branches, and other small items can be considered as road debris.

When people are driving, they must be careful not to hit any debris on the road as it can damage their vehicle or cause an accident. Sometimes debris is left behind because trucks, trailers, and cars are not properly secured before traveling, or they may fall off during transit.

In addition to damaging vehicles, road debris can also cause injury or harm to pedestrians, bicyclists, and other people on the road. This is why it is important for everyone to be aware of and avoid road debris as much as possible.

When someone spots debris on the road, they should report it to authorities or the local authorities so that they can clear it away and prevent any harm or damage to people or property.
