Some years ago I experienced similar. Driving on M1 and saw something in the corner of my eye and then a bang. Everything felt fine so carried on to my destination where I found what looked like part of HGV disk brake through the grille. Big lump of metal ( see pic against a 20" wheel)
I had no one to claim against , so had to claim the £750+ from my own insurance. Looking back I'm just thankful that it wasnt 6" higher impact or it could have been through the windscreen, on my side...
Annoying, but that's what insurance is for I guess. Worrying that HGVs can be on the road in such a poor state of road worthyness
