A device for preventing spray from emerging from the wheels of vehicles comprises a panel ( 4 ) that is adapted to be mounted substantially vertically behind a vehicle wheel ( 3 ) for receiving on a first side water released by the wheel ( 3 ) as it rotates. The panel ( 4 ) includes at least one passage ( 6 ) which leads from the first side to a rear second side of the panel ( 4 ). The or each passage ( 6 ) is other than normal to the plane of the panel ( 4 ). There is at least one water-collecting pocket ( 7 A, 7 B, 7 C) along the side of the or each passage ( 6 ). In use, air and water enter the or each passage ( 6 ) and are separated so that air passes through the or each passage ( 6 ) and mixes with ambient air and water collects in the at least one water-collecting pocket ( 7 A, 7 B, 7 C). |
