There are different signs but the ones Ive seen say stay back 300 feet,not responsible for broken windshields. Now if you are too close,and I drive a dump truck sometimes,you could get a broken windshield.I see people do this all the time,even though I drive less than the speed limit so people will pass me,some will hang back there,at way less than 300 feet.I dont want rocks to fall off and hit their windshield but hey,pass me and go on down the road! People driving cars seem to get dumber all the time. Also the insurance companys are who came up with the idea for these signs.There are others too.One I remember was the Buckle up sign was required because the truck company had had a fatality accident so the had to put Buckle up for Safety signs on the back of their trailers. So when you see this stuff dont just assume its the driver being arrogant.It has nothing at all to do with the driver for the most part.It may not even have anything to do with the company either,its just that they had to put the signs on to get insurance or something. Your best bet is to pass on a 4 lane or stay way back on a 2 lane.I know everybody is in a hurry nowdays,but they will say you were following too close if your windshild is busted and very likely not have to pay for it.Also,because people are in a hurry,and could be too close,and do get their windshield busted,every windshield that sign saves the insurance company from buying adds up to lots of money in a year. Ive had my own truck windshield busted by a dump truck more than once.Just dont follow them closely is better for you than trying to get them to buy you a windshield.

Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
