For many trucking companies, swerving is a terminable offense. I know because I just had a case with one, where he swerved to hit a deer and damaged the truck as a result. They're trained to smash the deer, not swerve, too dangerous to swerve. Company's policy manual says so. I thought it odd, but I guess a big freightliner towing a trailer or a double set of pups while barreling down the highway will make short order of any deer.
Now I wonder what the rule on elk and caribou are? Any truckers from the upper plains or Canucks-land out there?
