Rocks from a truck would probably not bother the horizontal on roof panels as much as the windshield. Have to say, I never had a broken windshield from rocks from a truck in my 57 years of driving. Solar panels aren't glass but rather plastic like and wouldn't shatter but might get damaged so the circuits were broken....worse case.
