Maybe he wouldn't have hit the dog if he was in his truck instead of on it?
I try not to be a grammar Nazi, but at this point, the next time I hear someone confuse "in" and "on", or use "floor" when they mean "ground", I hope they stub their toe so hard the entire nail gets ripped out.
But why, exactly do we ride in a car but on a bus? Or sleep in the bed but on the couch?
You're on the bus, in a seat, but if the bus driver finishes the day and left his hat behind, his hat is in the bus on a seat. Active/private/static vs passive/public/transitory. You're generally in buildings but on vehicles, unless that vehicle is both private and enclosed. It's not much more complicated than in[side] vs on [top of]; just keep in mind that it's predicated on whether or not the encapsulatory nature of the object is necessary to its identity. For instance, you could also ride on a flat parade float without walls or roof, and putting a box on it to make it a bus doesn't change that, so it remains 'on'.
