You should go get an estimate from a reputable body shop and present it to the trucking company... and stop driving behind trucks!

Did you try and get the truck to pull over? The trucking company is going to say you're filing a false claim. Its standard.

You will probably win but if this ever happens to you again try and get the truck to pull over and call the police from right there
