    I admit, it would have to be a very creative dog.

    I can honestly say, no. I would not pull over to get it off. I would run screaming into the woods. Bugs, snakes, republicans, IM SCARED OF THEM!!!! Lol. Seriously, a snake would freak me out so bad that I wouldn't be able to sleep. I see a snake on the window, I'm not taking video. I'm calling 911, the army, the president, and it will be killed, even if the truck has to be taken out with a missle.

    I'd keep it as an 'in-cab' lumper motivator..."unload me cheap and quick or say hello to my little friend"...or better yet, something to toss to the lot lizard that ignores my 'no lot lizards' sign and beats on my door at 2 a.m.

    I live in FL...work for a company out of TX...snakes, eeeeeeeh, as long as it isn't poisonous. I can spot a poisonous snake at 70 mph. Regular snakes really don't bother me.

    The 1st trucking company I worked for, I started in the shop to earn my CDL. They had a Coral snake slither thru one afternoon...I didn't let them kill it, I did my best Steve Erwin impression, (ohhhh crikeee, look at that beauty...let's annoy the crap out of it and see what it does) then picked it up and tossed it in the woods. My boss thought I was nuts and told me that had I been bitten, it wouldn't have been covered by workers comp because I chose to handle it...then called me a ####### yankee. Sorry...it takes a lot to get a Coral snake to bite...poisonous, yes...agressive...no...

    He doesn't look like a poisonous kind of snake. He'd probably just be happy put in some grass to just get away.
