Narrative:

After clearing runway 28R at sfo, PIC was cleared to taxi to parking via taxiway K and taxiway C to the ramp on tower frequency. As aircraft was proceeding north into west entrance to the ramp, a maintenance truck on the vehicle access road failed to stop and impacted the aircraft on right wing. Aircraft was secured at point of impact. Driver of the truck backed truck away from aircraft. Driver failed to see aircraft. Medical attendant in copilot seat saw vehicle just before impact, but was unable to stop event. The NTSB was notified of this incident. Contributing factors: 1) taxiway and road were wet and black. Vision was difficult because of glare. 2) taxiway and roadway markings were washed out. 3) airport authority/authorized had closed east entrance onto ramp because of damage to drainage system. Entrance and ramp were coned off for about 200 ft. However, they did not appear to have relocated the stop sign at east entrance. This condition has existed for several months. 4) ramp did not provide follow-me support. Corrective actions: 1) airport authority/authorized should place stop signs on roadway in each direction at both entrances to ramp. 2) airport authority/authorized should fix east entrance to ramp as soon as possible.
