Abstract
A spray-suppressant splash guard is adapted to depend from a vehicle body rearwardly of a wheel of the body and is provided with vertically extending channel means open at least the lower end thereof and baffle means which extend from the rib in a disposition whereby spray thrown rearwardly by the vehicle wheel will enter the channel means and rebound from a splash surface of the splash guard to be intercepted, in part, by the baffle means. The portion so intercepted will be confined to the channel means for discharge at the lower open end thereof.
