Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I was driving through a construction zone on the highway this weekend and a construction truck merged from the ramp and got in front of me. I heard objects hitting my car and slowed down immediately, realizing the open bed semi was losing gravel. The damage I can see thus far is stone chips to the front bumper, hood, passenger mirror and chips in the windshield glass. I got the license plate number to turn into my insurance company. I figure I am out the $500 deductible and the driver will deny responsibility.

POST 2Original post

Sorry this happened to you. I NEVER tailgate in the Porsches. I never even like being in the same lane as a truck unless I can fall back a football field. And a truck without mup flaps, I pull a u-turn and head home to the safety of my garage.

POST 3Original post

i've been in that situation. driving through construction zone. was keeping my distance from the car in front of me because of the loose rocks in the road. dump truck pulled between us and immediately started dropping gravel everywhere (also had an open bed even though it was "empty") thankfully i was able to drop back fairly quickly and only had a few spots where anything of substance hit.
