[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1381362, member: 30902"] Sad, but not surprising. Hitting a hog is like hitting a boulder. A few years back a national freight hauler had five trucks totaled in hog collisions in as many weeks just west of here. They were forced by their insurance carrier to route the trucks more than a hundred miles out of the way to avoid them or lose their coverage. The worst thing about hogs is that often they are the same color or nearly the same as the pavement and you're already on top of them before you even realize they are there. If you're in hog country driving at night, slow down, slow down some more and run some extra lights if you can and make sure they are mounted on a stout cow catcher. [/QUOTE]
