    With a tanker you get one move...... if you have to correct after the one move your toast......

    Ive only had to deal with a couple of deer.... and one spinning car on a snowy interstate... let off the throttle and maintained my lane . 2 dead deer and one missed 4 wheeler.
     
    Bud A. Thanks this.

    Well they can add careless driving and leaving the scene of an accident involving death or injury to that list now. R.I.P. driver.

    i learned that lesson, when i first started. it was pounded into our heads (in the driving school) to NEVER swerve.

    and all my years, i never did.

    i told my wife back then, that if i can "see" with-in a nano second, that i am going to die cuz of some moron?, i'm taking him (or her) with me"..

    i also told her to use the money in the savings account get a darned good lawyer, to make sure the police did not find ME guilty of the wreck.

    something must have worked........she never had to hire an attorney.
     
    Bud A. and lovesthedrive Thank this.
