The driver of the 2001 Freightliner, Russell Rabuck, was going east on I-70 hauling a 53 foot box trailer full of frozen bread dough from Boulder, Colorado to Greenwood, Indiana when he says a deer caused him to swerve off of the interstate.
It is best to have some deer hair on the truck somewhere to back up the story and also report "the deer ran into the truck", not visa versa. (I've got about 10 so far. none chargeable) Don't swerve, especially on a 2 lane with soft shoulders. If you do, there's a good chance you die or hit someone in opposite lane. Much better that Bambi dies.Drivers fall asleep at the wheel a lot with the hit the deer excuse.
Hair is good, sometimes. I HATE trying to get those little curly ones out from between my teeth. Shaved is always much better !!BEST of the 13 comments under Article:

15,000 dollar damage to median 76,000 to the truck, fresh dough late for delivery and possible lives in danger!...... Thank goodness the deer made it!!.....and I NEED A LICENSE TO HUNT!!!
Another Comment stated the person spoke to the EX-employed driver who was cleaning out his truck.

I hit 1 deer in December, '09 on Rt. 29 south of Charlottsville, Va., since my driving challenge/career started in late '98. There was embedded HAIR to prove it along with busted up fiberglass hood.
