This has always been what I do when caught driving during a hailstorm. Pull over somewhere and wait it out. Not under an overpass, but just stop the vehicle from moving.
If I'm at home and there is a warning about the possibility of hail, I put the blankets by the door. When it starts, I keep an eye on it. If it gets to quarter sized, that's when I toss the blankets on. If it stays under a quarter, I don't bother.
Worked for me so far.
