    Driving on the motorway and get overtaken by a truck whick is loaded with pebbles and basically get you car showered with them while anywhere in the vacinity of said trucks.
    This has happen me a few times and its a real pain in the a%se that someone else blizzards your car with stones causing scatters of small chip marks and nearly breaking the windscreen.

    Take down the name/number of the company and make a complaint to them. If there are pebbles coming off the truck they should cover the load with a tarpaulin.

    Is anyone ever prosecuted for this. I mean they are essentially causing damage to cars on the open road.
