re: Remember, always hit the deer, don't try to avoid it because this happens

What you want to avoid hitting is a hog.

My uncle hit a hog and it flipped his truck. The hog rolled under it like a barrel, and over it went.

If you're the type to panic steer and lose control, yes you might end up in the woods. Unfortunately most drivers are like that, they've never learned how to do evasive action and stay on the road.

Every now and then you hear of some poor soul who has a blowout and steers all over the road in a panic when all they had to do was counter the pull on the steering wheel and get on the shoulder.
