    Now, I have to ask.
    Do you think it’s family will issue a BOLO?
    And you said “He hit,” so what about his kids?
    Will they grow up thinking their deer dad ran off with another deer family??

    Lol u should have seen the look on the face of the people in the car of the oncoming lane. They had slammed on their brakes for the stupid thing and watched him run to his death and got a front row seat to the guts explosion

    So..

    Now, you have traumatized two families, the deer, and the watchers.
    So tonight, one family will be wondering where papa deer is, and why no supper, and the others won’t be able to eat due to horrid visions, and maybe bits and pieces of bone and skin and yuck all over their car, since the momentum would have projected that in the same direction of travel as you were moving.

    Now.
    What if it snows?
    Family 1. (deer) could be cold, hungry, all alone, and forever hate truckers!

    Ah forget it, I’ve ribbed you long enough.

    Yet you have a place to park and that is more useful than the drivers whomm are circling the parking lot wishing they could find a place

    I have a multi placarded hazmat load. A long way to go, and a short time to get there, and no options.

    We will resume east bound and down at approximately 0430.

    If I had like 8 more minutes available, I could have made the TA at the other end of town.

    Now I have a Weiner truck next to me with a compressor kicking out every 15 seconds.

    How do you drive like that?

    The flip side to your parking would be next time to buy more spaces. Then when evening hours came you could sell them off at $100 ea! presuming the owners of the parking lot dont throw you out. lol
