Larry, I would have done that -but- that section of road, that year, had just been
repaved. There were no dividing lines and no indication of where the shoulder of the
road started or the cliffs began. IMO it was just as dangerous to try and pull off
the road as it was to try and outrun the truck until I reached some properly marked
piece of highway. Since the truck would not let me outrun him than I had no choice
but to try and repel him.

What would you have done under those circumstances? Remember, it was a pitch black
moonless night and the trucker obviously felt it was ok to blind me as well as `push`
me as closely as he could.

Maybe you had to be there.
