    Had an impact with a wild turkey in VA. Was back a way from the road, then decided to bow up and started to run then fly. Had the hood pete then. Never even let off the throttle. Hit the grill and got stuck under the headlight. Bent some chrome. For months I was “The Turkey Hunter”. Only lasted till the next animal strike, someone got a deer.

    Probably common in construction zones these days.
    A couple of near misses make those memorable. Last 3 years of I65 say, Cave City on to the B/Grass had some interesting chutes.

    And a pocket knife will do — not that I would know about such things

    I took my road test in one of those. 1992 Werner Truck. My Dads company Truck. Soon after they had Conventionals. No one missed the Cabovers. Good riddance.
