Re: VA-I-81 wreck claims man’s life

Thanks again for another crash link contribution rowdy.
That is some damage,viewing this crash scene.
I can where the trucker would of never lived through that crash.
The report says one semi driver had swerved to avoid hitting 3 deer.
It goes on to describe all of the carnage,however does not say anything about how those 3 deer made out?

Talk about fait,if there were no deer in the area we would have no crash to post.
Really goes to show how life can go wrong given the circumstances of a split second poor decision to swerve around the deer,instead of backing off,and holding the lane.

...or NOT BACKING OFF while holding the lane into the Deer.

When there are people wandering around on foot on ANY roadway, swerving or changing lanes with vehicles is understandable.
Some Animals know NOT that vehicles are dangerous ESPECIALLY the brain dead Deer.
Sure, it sucks to hit Animals with trucks but it sucketh MORE when hit with 4 wheelers.

These new drivers need to understand (somehow) that Deer are not MOOSE.
I believe the Deer successfully escaped any injury at least from that event.
