    Do people really wreck by avoiding a deer? My second week of first seat driving when one found its way in front of my truck on the interstate I didn't flinch, and mowed it down. I didn't feel very good about it either, it really upset me, but I can't imagine wrecking to avoid one.

    Did y'all read the comments under the video? Not sure if real or not but would be pretty funny if was.

    yahoo news and comments are very credible.:biggrin_25526:
    The stupid reporters contradicted themselves.... said it would be days until road way is open then says 1 lane is open with video. LMAO ! :biggrin_25520:

    Hope the driver is doing well, 1 position opened up at ODFL temporarily

    Yeah, but the reporter is kinda hot in a trashy sort of way, so I didn't hear any actual details on the story . . .
     
    Shaggy and Skydivedavec Thank this.
