Best Answer

this depends on where the truck is registered and to what the laws are of that region.

Added: (in the US) Commercial vehicles engaged in interstate commerce must be equipped with splash guards by DOT and ICC regulation and according to most state laws. This is one of the many things that 'weigh stations' check for on interstate and US highways, which can be seen at the entrance to most states and at intervals throughout the state.

ADDED: Mudflaps are not regulated under the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations, it is a State law in those states that require them.
