I had someone throw a bottle of water out of a car at me a few weeks ago. Fortunately they mistimed it and it bounced in front of me and away. Idiots:mad:

it happens a lot in the USA too. I know many cyclists who have been hit by bottles and other objects thrown out of cars usually by teenagers but not always. i know a big man who was riding a randonneur ride from the US to Canada; someone threw a bag of ice at him. it hit him on his chest, he had severe bruising from it.
