I remember hearing a story(not truck stop either, but in a truck paper) of a guy who had just leased a truck 2 weeks prior.
He was travelling in louisiana I believe. One of the southern states anyways.
A couple of kids threw a huge boulder, smashed through the windshild, and hit him in the face. He was totally blinded.
Got it over to the shoulder, called 911, etc..
Turns out the guy cannot drive truck any more, and has severe vision problems.
Apparently in that state, due to the age of the kids(14-15 I believe) if they do not fess up to what they did, they cannot be held or charged. They got off totally free.
