  • Patent number: 6719328
    Abstract: A road vehicle spray control system, including a combination of a louvered side panel and mudguard, for controlling the splash and spray generated by trucks, trailers and other road vehicles when travelling during inclement weather, wherein the louvered side panels are attached to the underside of the vehicle, maintaining the legal 8 foot width requirements, so that an airflow is created which forces air through the louvers and which airflow directs water or spray downward into the wheel well and towards mudguards mounted behind the rear wheels. Such mudguards have a downwardly facing opening in the center portion and are preferably curved to an angle of 27 degrees, so that rain, spray, water, small pebbles and the like are directed through such opening, to be dissipated on the roadway surface, resulting in safer driving conditions.
