I feel a bit naked without a bullbar. Apart from somewhere to mount spotlights etc, it's that little bit of insurance when driving at night. Definitely no guarantee that you'll come out unscathed, but more likely to survive the impact.

Kangaroos and wombats are pretty much solid parcels of muscle. I've seen numerous times the result of truck v wombat and the result is never pretty for both parties.
Never argue with idiots. They bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

It seems like the truck on the video isn't carrying a lot of light. (Might be because of the video quality) But I'm sure I've seen truck lights that shine a lot further, which I think might come in handy when driving there.....?

Maybe just the video. Standard fitup for most longhaul trucks includes a bullbar with 2/3/4 Spots/LED bars fitted
