Road debris-Long Island NY

All,
I got my mini S last March, now has 5000 miles.
The debris on LI's roads is really horrible. My windshield is sandblasted and has 1 dime sized ding and 3 smaller. I have spots of tar from the road work. Does anyone know what I can use to remove this and not mess up the paint?

And those damned sand trucks in the morning .... aaarrrrgggg(sorry)

Another Q. Is it just me or is it because we sit so low to the road.

The best thing I can suggest for the tar is a good claybar rubbing and then Simoniz treatment to help keep new tar off.
