Commercial Construction

There was a big Mack Truck with a long trailer hauling a CAT machine,(huge excavator) in the slow lane, and I went to go around him and pass him in the fast lane, as I did so, a rock flew from the wheels of the machine and struck my windshield and smashed it. The wheels on the machine were covered in mud and stones, like it wasn’t even cleaned off before they started to haul it. I got in front of the truck and was trying to get the guy to pull over, but of course he was on his cell phone and wouldn’t and just blew the horn at me. So I ended up getting the license plate # and the name of the company and filed a police report. My question is, do you think that that company should be held responsible, because my insurance is trying to charge me my deductible, and I just don’t have that money right now. I think that it was the companies fault for not making sure that the equipment was clean and was able to be hauled without something like this happening.
