Default noise on drivers side sounds like driving through rocks!!!

Hi folks its great to be a part of this informative site. I have noticed recently that there is a noise that is coming from drivers side behind me. it sounds like ya know when you drive through gravel and there are still some rocks left in the the tread of the tire and it sounds like tiny rocks are hitting the car? I know its weird but its new and if its something stupid i dont want to be at the dealer waiting for something that is a quick fix. it almost sounds like somebody is coming up at every stoplight and dropping a bunch of gravel for me to roll through. ANY IDEAS. its driving me crazy. I have looked under car and nothing. cant see anything loose.thanks again.

Its very dificult to say something about that without looking the car, if i was you , go with the car to workshop to under re.pinch all components or go with a mechanic on car to ear the noise, but the perception of noise just driving the car , like this i cant help you...sorry my English.

Sounds like a bad wheel bearing.
