    A gore, gore point, or gore zone is a triangular piece of land found where roads merge or split. When two roads merge, the area is sometimes referred to as a merge nose. The term "gore" probably originates from the dressmaker's term for a triangular piece of cloth.


    Some fuc tard crossed the gore in front of me last week and kick a big piece of tire tread into my front bumper last week and knocked off my trim around my fog lights...please do not cross gores...not to mention its illegal !!!

    I would have been dialing and chasing all at once! Hope it's not too expensive of a fix.

    Where 285 merges into 75 on the north end, the two right lanes both get off for delk road east / west. This is the worst section of highway i've ever seen, as people on 75N have to make the mega merge across 8 lanes in less than a mile, and douchebags coming off 285 ride these two exit lanes to the end before cutting off traffic. If a cop would sit there, he could write tickets all day long, and I'd actually shake his hand for doing it.

    FWIW, it's a $500 fine for crossing the gore, at least it is in GA.

    if the bumper is cracked a body shop will want to replace it, doubt your deductible higher than what theyd charge to replace and repaint all of that. maybe get a different frontbumper/lip. otherwise, id jist replace those pieces too
