Avoid driving behind any large dump truck, they all have loose stone and dirt on them.

On the 90 I might be able to understand. Even there I’ll back off a ways, and make a ricer flyby on the far shoulder trying to stay clear of the debris.

But the 198? It’s 3 miles long. You couldn’t lose the 30 seconds to hang back far enough going what ever speed he was so that the rocks weren’t hitting your car?

But yeah, at this point there is pretty much nothing you can do. Even if the cops would do something with that plate number, which they won’t, by the time they found the truck it would probably be empty. Even if it isn’t, it’s your word against his that his truck caused your damage.
