Description of the problem	As i passed under a railroad overpass i hit a large pothole probably caused by a recent 2-4" rainfall. The impact caused my hood to release and slam back into my windshield, obliterating my forward view. I slowed immediately without swerving and activated my warning flashers. Luckily, there was only one car behind me and none approaching when this occurred. Upon stopping i found that my windshield had been badly cracked and the hood struts had broken, allowing the hood to fold back fully. The safety catch on the release mechanism apparently failed to keep the hood from flying up. The hood latched when brought back down, but i no longer trust it. This could have been a far worse situation in traffic.
