Deer VS Dodge 3500

Or why I chose another truck.

This morning I was coming home when I met another driver coming toward me so I hit my dims and concentrated on the one headlight coming toward me leery of people out at 3am, afraid this might be a drunk with one headlight and the rest of his car in my lane. About the time I realize it is indeed a motorcycle in his own lane my left eye catches movement and as I realize it's a big deer and utter fc! he hits me so hard he actually rocks the truck.

The guy on the bike turns around and he's pretty shook up because he was ten feet from the action and is one lucky guy, and the deer believe or not got up and ran away.



We both probably would have seen him if we would have been alone with our brights on but at 65 MPH running dims there just isn't enough reaction time when it comes to a deer running at you at 30MPH and this is why I don't drive a car.
