Large trucks and trailers (weighing 10,000 pounds or more) must now be equipped with mud flaps or similar protection behind their rear wheels to prevent dirt and water from spraying onto following vehicles' windshields. The mud flaps must be wide enough to cover the full tire width and sit no more than 10 inches from the ground, though farm equipment and vehicles used solely for hauling agricultural products are exempt from this requirement.
