You can try asking mother nature nicely to please blow the wind in a different direction. Tell people to please stop driving down that road. Get city officials to re route the road in a different direction or Move your plants.
Those honestly sound like your only options. On a more serious note if you can't move your plants then I would foliage feed Straight water often to help keep the fan leaves clean. Other than that you're not going to be able to stop it.

Lived most my life on dirt roads, a shade cloth won't solve the issue. It would be like putting a small shade cloth Infront of a picture frame on your mantle and expect it to not have dust behind it. Dust from dirt roads swirls in the air it doesn't fall in one direction like rain. Building any kind of structure around your plant that doesn't look natural will only draw attention to it. Just my opinion but I dont believe a shade cloth will have much effect other than make your plant stand out in mother nature.

That's what I was going to say...
Just try spraying the road in front of the house on really dry days .

I can't say that I recommend spraying the road in front a your plants either that's going to look pretty suspicious when only a certain patch of the road is always wet that's going to get people's curiosity going. It sure would mine

He lives in a legal state and is not worried that is the only suggestion I have. If he is worried about it then there is not much you can do.
