What is the name of your state? MA
While driving to work on the highway a large 18 wheeler dump truck passed me on the left a pulled into the right lane in front of me. I was driving a rental car. Small rocks were streaming from the back of the truck (coming from between the seam where the dump closes). These rocks caused two chips as well as a five to six in crack, which continues to grow larger, in the winshield.
Unable to read the grimy plate number, or the half ripped off "how's my driving" sticker, I followed the truck to its work site. Once there the truck continued down into a sand pit with lots of other heavy machinery. I went to the site office to talk to someone but there was nobody around. After a few minutes I left without speaking to anyone.
So I have a couple questions. Am I correct in assuming that my auto insurance will cover a new windshield for the rental ( I have full coverage)? Would I get anywhere trying to get the trucking company to pony up the dough for this. I know, I know, I should probably just let my comprehensive cover this, but I just does'nt seem right.
