Kind of a funny tweet, though.

On a serious note, if that thing fell off a cliff and rolled into your car, you'd be taking a little detour off the cliff.

"extra-medium" to me.

lol

On the road it looks small. If placed on my Prius.......

This is one of the largest small boulders ever found on a motorway

Oh crap, we've got blue dress green dress stuff here.

Colorado?

Used to live in CO, but it's been quite a while ago. We used to joke about "no guard rails" all the time.

but when he got back to the cruiser he took another look and realized it wasn't so big after all.

we drove up Rt 128 up the Colorado River towards the Fisher Towers near Moab UT. We did some hiking, then went back to Moab. We came across a boulder on the road the size of a VW. There was still dust wafting about.

...per Google Earth.

At least the roads are bad… So that people will be driving slowly. It could be a bad situation if somebody came flying around the corner and that Boulder was sitting there! In my opinion, that’s a big boulder… Not small.

large when you are trying to drive around it on a snowy road.

The replies are hilarious. Well worth taking the time to visit Twitter.

and biggest!

crushes your car and you are in it

Not large.

The sheriff sent a patrol car to investigate and later sent a snowplow to shove the rock off the highway.

More appropriate to send heavy equipment to the scene to deal with the problem. You know you're going to end up shoving the rock off the highway eventually. Why not start there?

... until run into it, or have to go around it, then it's large.

Like having a small pebble in your shoe.
