Strange.
I think it was in the fall of '81, we had just added some new International S series trucks to the fleet and I was covering a route while the driver had some time off. A few miles out of town at about 5:30 AM, I was heading down a long hill through the woods when this thought occurred to me. "Man, I bet a deer jumping on to the road would make a mess of the fiberglass front end."
It freaked me out enough that I got off the throttle and on to the brakes. I got slowed down to just under 50 mph when a big doe came out of the ditch on the left and made it across the road a few yards in front of me.
I try to listen to the little voices in my head.
Best
