It's not at all unusual from October through January to take a drive down any county road in southeastern NC and see lines of trucks and dog boxes, mannned by armed folks standing right beside the asphalt... and while I know many of those folks have better sense than to shoot right down the paved road, a lot of people, especially non-hunters, don't know this. Even worse, some of those people DO shoot right down the highway. I hate to see restrictions on hunting, but this is one "tradition" that needs to go away. Get off the highways, folks... hunt in the woods! This has long been an issue in NC, and a regular source of black-eyes for the hunting community.

As you pointed out, it seems unsafe and it doesn't really seem like hunting. I’m not really big on the whole idea of road hunting.
