The role of bombardment of the rings by the dominant size of meteoroids is examined. Also considered are the circumstances which explain the observed presence of spokes on both the illuminated and unilluminated faces of the ring; leading-trailing asymmetry in the behavior of the spokes, and the forward tilt in the spokes.
