Posts: 8144 New Bohemia, VA | Just a reminder about the 4-legged devils are out. I'll post pictures later, but on the way home a coworker, in his car, struck a deer on I-95. I was about a mile behind him, I guess, when the traffic snarled. As I crest the hill in the line of cars in the hammer lane, I see a car on the median shoulder next to the jersey wall, and a deer about 20 feet behind the car. I see the man get and recognize him to be my coworker. I was stopping anyways, because at the same time I see a pickup on the outside shoulder come across and start talking to him to see if he's okay. He was driving a Maxima, and the whole windshield was concaved where the deer hit and his roof push back some and the sun roof gone. He was okay except from the glass cuts, but he explained the deer came across from the opposite side, leaped the jersey wall directly in front of him, and the rest was history. I'll post pictures later. The fact there have been a lot of motorcycles out lately, to include one about 5 cars in front of me who stopped also, it could have been anyone of us instead. Like I told my friend/coworker, "I'm glad it was you and not me." He said, "I know, this is just a car, but had been, it would have been you!" pointing at me. If they'll break across the interstate during rush hour, they'll be anywhere, without notice. Beware! |
