And the highways agency’s like to spread stones on the road and wait for a miracle to occur and for them to be bedded into the road making a brand new surface

Mudflaps are meant to help this problem as Scoobys are prone to the odd stone landing on your bonnet or elsewhere. Me not got any yet, its gonna happen soon now, d`oh
