Default PA Riders beware of the Bear (and deer)

Blasted a bear last night on I-380 in Mt Pocono with my freaking gorgeous, mint ,loving loaded, babied 2004 Lincoln Towncar. 71 MPh next thing face full of Fking airbag WTF. Me the wife and my 3 kids drove off the highway and reported to PSP. got the family a ride a ride home and drove the TC home myself in tears. Tears of joy that my family and I were not injured had I tried to avoid it and rolled the car etc. I didn't even have my seatbelt onwhich will never happen again, the airbag sorta threw my right hand off the steering wheel and the car continued straight but the airbag smoke was like a cheech and chong movie and scared my kids to death. Ins might fix it or total it. if so I'll get another low mileage one. Towncars are the cats *** to me. Anyway guy on a goldwing in front of truckin at 71-75 the whole way. Right before the accident he put about 20 seconds or so of distance between us and I could barely see his tail lights through the fog and mist of the unlit road. I am glad it was my car rather than him. Guys.. Watch for these freakin animals...Please.

yeah, watch is the key word, but seeing them before it is too late requires great vigilance. Glad you are ok.
