Hopefully someone put it back into the box and radio it in.

No need to call it in. It was still touching the box.

Yep, you'd feel a construction traffic cone. They are much bigger and heavier than you think. Years ago, I bought a set from a construction supply business and used them to teach my kids how to drive & park. (Michigan publishes the dimensions of all the handling and parking tests a new driver has to pass.) Now that all my kids are adults, I loan the cones out to other parents.

I noticed the S is NOT like my DD, I hit a porcupine after dodging the first while dropping a girl on a first date down her road and when I hit it, it felt like I ran over the bumper etc. stopped and nothing was damaged ( thankfully) If you roadkill or even hit a road cone, you'll be 110% sure you hit it

If you're hitting cones, stop driving in the middle of the freeway.
