      @ Agreed! So you put lots of miles on.
      The meese! Gangs of moose! I’m sure glad they built the tunnels in the parks over the highways for them. Some spots of the Coquihalla, and from Golden to Canmore and over by Banff and Jasper. I think it’d be safer on the island (if they redo any parts of the highway) because I’ve had times where the fog was so thick the fog amplifies the white light. It’s why most truckers stay hard right like if possible (or they’re renegades ). Pardon my incompetent grammar. Trying to be benevolent and someone was offended. I guess they’ve never ended up in the ditch swerving to avoid. Or there was one time on a gulf island avoiding a deer we met a tree head on and my late good friend flew out the front window. Broken glass sucks. Safe travels in 2025 and future!!

      I'm confused. When oncoming traffic with blinding headlight inhibits my ability to see anything dark in front of me...its just a sucky situation where I just literally guess where the dark road edge is...& to resort to stay close enough to the approaching blinding light without creating a suicidal headon collision. That's exactly how it goes each time a blinding lights whizzed by...
