ABSTRACT:
Apparatus and methods are disclosed for reducing spray from wheeled vehicles operating on wet roadways. Reduction is achieved by decreasing lateral airflow by the use of slanted or curved mud flaps and the addition of a streamlined air deflector. Water droplets thrown by wheels are caught in grooved surfaces which prevent further atomization and dispersal.
