Trucking companies deny damage claims by motorists as a matter or practice and usually get away with it due to insufficient evidence and/or simple frustration of the injured party.
For what it's worth, those "Stay Back *** Feet. Not Responsible For ...." liability disclaimers often seen on the tailgates of dump trucks are not enforceable.
Several years ago, a chrome wheel trim ring fell from a tractor trailer immediately in front of me and I could not avoid hitting it. As my car was driveable, I caught up with the truck and recorded both the license numbers and DOT numbers for my insurance company. The insurance company paid my claim without deductable because I always carry $0 deductable comprehensive coverage but did not want the information identifying the responsible party.
I strongly recommend $0 dedectable comprehensive coverage to address windshield damage. I've done this for decades and usually have a windshield replaced every 2 or 3 years. It is getting much worse due to the huge numbers of trucks on the road and the cavalier attitude of many drivers and companies.
