Should've used the UV Turret.
Did the Semi stop? Did you get the License plate number? That's fucked up. I almost had a tire from a semi hit my windshield. The tire blew and the shards were flying everywhere on the NJ Turnpike. Luckily the larger chunks flew high in the air and all cars avoided it. The smaller shards were what hit a lot of the cars. It sucked.
It didn't stop but I sped up like a mofo and wrote down all the info I could. Called my insurance company this morning and they said to call the trucking co before filing a claim, so I did and he called me back a bit ago and was trying to say all the mudflaps were on the trailer. I gave him the licence #'s again and told him to check the truck too. Shenanigans.
But an electronic side mirror is really expensive, the labor and shit. Yeah the A pillar is expensive due to that usually being part of the frame. That will be hard to fix. What kind of car is it?

I wonder if going back and getting the mudflap would help you prove your case.
Once on the interstate going 75 mph, a 4' X 6' piece of plywood that had fallen off someone's trailer caught wind in front of me when a semi passed it and it flew up over my hood, over my windshield and over my car, missing by inches. That shit wasn't funny.
