How the heck? (What they should have taught you)

I came up over a hill in backwoods Indiana cutting over from 69 to 31 to Kokomo at about 1 in the morning one foggy in the valleys-early Spring

The deer pack I came up on looked like something you would see on the animal planet on the Seringetti.

There were literally hundreds in the cleared corn fields and road.

My truck had Power of the Sun Highbeams and I hit the horn and got on the brakes the second I saw the first one.

They didn’t move at first until a couple started to run and than the whole pack ran across the field and down the road

One of those things that after you see it in the foggy mist you Go. “Well that was pretty Awesome, probably never see that again in my lifetime “

 

It would probably save trucking companies a buck or two if drivers were given instructions on how to make minor repairs such as splicing wires in order to replace those pesky trailer marker/turn signal lights.

 

Im glad they dont. Seeing some of these drivers out here , we would have truck fires all the time from people doing crappy wiring jobs

 

I am officially thanking this post 26 times over the recommended limit.

 

I had a similar incident on Rogers pass in BC in a major snow squall that popped up. I was doing about 10 mph trying to make it to a pull out just down the road to wipe snow off headlights all of a sudden their was a huge bull moose going by on the right side I just missed it with mirror. I was running team and codriver dang near screamed lol.

 

But, I am good with wires. I swear.

 

Truck lights are not 110 Volt, they are direct current 12 volt.

 

DC, as proved by Tesla, is more dangerous than AC. Also, it's not voltage that kills, it's amperage. You can survive 220v but you're dead with .5 amps.
