I despise those salt trucks also. It feels like rocks raining your X when one of these drive by. When I see it I avoid it like a plaque.....at all cost. Slow down, speed up, change direction, disappear.....whatever it takes.

Back in NY state, the DOT uses an elixir of chloride, grit, sand, and some other crap; it was like BBs shot from a cannon or, following your worst nightmare gravel truck. But, the concoction worked, espc. if you stayed off the roads for a day. Cleaning the rides was not fun, however.
