I nearly hit a possum just last night... Lucky I had crappy tyres so I have been driving much slower than I usually do cool.gif

I've hit about 1,000,000 or more flies, mosquitoes & various other flying insects but I don't think I've ever hit an animal. I'd feel really bad about it if I did... They're just trying to make a living fing02.gif


However, I have hit a human being...

The dude ran across the road in between some stationary cars wanting to turn at an intersection whilst I was continuing straight in another lane next to them: I'd pretty much managed to stop & barely tapped him in the leg but he did a massive commando roll up onto my bonnet & into the windscreen, then rolled off the car & back onto the road. I nearly shat myself as did a work colleague in my front passenger seat.

The guy jumped up, apologised profusely & said he was running late for his train, then ran off toward the train station. He was fine but there is still a small "knee" dent & a couple of scratches on my hood from the ordeal. Bugger sad.gif

 

I don't know what I would do if I hit and killed a person... I would most likely give up driving though.

 

Yah my uncle hit a biker and he died, the guy was going down I-81 at night with no bright clothing or reflective things on his bike. Anyone who doesnt know I-81 is a highway restricted to cars and my uncle never saw him.

He was really depressed for a while, his car was pretty banged up too.

 

Squirrel, they kind of make a poping sound when you hit them lol
and bugs of course

 

Lots of already dead ones. I hit a live racoon with my Elantra. My female passengers thought I was a bad guy for accidentally doing it.

 

My shark has killed 2 birds, and one squirrel. Maybe a few frogs jumping across the street too at night.

Ah well, I don't try to kill animals, but sometimes they just get in the way, and I'll be damned if I am gonna lose control of my car to save the poor animal.

God yes, there are a LOT of the horrid things...
That place sounds a lot like it does here, this a farming/very rural area. Lots of pidgeons, rabbits (oh my god are there rabbits) and Roe Deer.
