Solution to all of this? Just move the deer crossing signs to the areas where the speed zones are slower? Guys with the smaller engines never have this problem lol!

Carry a barbecue grill, barbecue the dead deer on the spot and thank nature for a free lunch.

Everyone got it yet?

Hit the $%&^$% thing, squash it, bump it, crush it, dent it, scare it, smash your coach into it, stay straight on the road!!!

Do you not have a good relationship with your GOD???

Mark my words, swerving is PUTTING YOUR GOD TO THE TEST, having read these words, you will be held to account for having disobeyed them.

DO NOT SWERVE.

I want to meet you at a busnut gathering sometime.

Do it wrong, and we will use you as a training illustration...

Do it right, wreckage is on the road, in the lane, You will be exonerated, even in death, you will be said to have done the right thing.

Can you tell this is an important subject?

happy coaching!

A cow weighs around 1,500 pounds.  The driver of my bus is probably going to be dead or seriously injured if a cow is hit with any sort of speed.  I'm not saying that swerving is a good idea either.  There is a world of difference between hitting a deer with a bus and hitting a cow with a bus.

I know someone who hit a cow with an old Ford Taurus wagon and rolled the car.  He was lucky and was able to roll the car back over and still drive it.  (Maybe he didn't hit the cow and rolled due to swerving.  Not sure.)

Swerving kills 'em all.

Cow in the road? You are being tested by a higher authority.

Stay on the road.

If you live, wonder about a headlight upgrade to CIBIE E-code lights, and slowing down?

happy coaching!

Pin a photo of a Big Mac on the front of your bus to scare the cows away :p
