I agree, but most often its not the vehicle, its the driver.

 

ha but most people swerve, not come to a stop and let the animal pass. unless its an animal crossing h:

 

I would never hit a dog or a cat unless the situation makes it impossible to avoid. Oddly enough, I've never come across a domesticated pet dumb enough to get into that situation.

That said, I've happily flattened about six squirrels, two possums, two bunnies and a deer, IIRC.

 

try driving home in alabama, you run over a different animal everyday....

 

didnt you make a thread only yesterday complaining about alabama jokes?

ida hit that squirrel no question. as for the bitch, as soon as she got to my window, i woulda left the stop sign and had her standing in the road looking stupid.

i wouldnt hit a domesticated animal unless it repeatedly ran in front of me. story: my friend drove the same road every morning (like most of us do) every morning, a dog ran out in front of him at the same spot. one day, he was swerving to avoid this asshole repeat offender dog and put his car in the ditch. i woulda hit that bastard after the 2nd time

 

My philophy is this...i'll beep my horn if he doesnt move...i look at the fact that i gave it fair warning.

 

This is what happened to me a few months ago:

Driving down the 40 mph road and a squirrel decides he wants to cross about 50 feet ahead of me. I continue on my path as he goes from my right to my left. He's moving slowly and cautiously and so I drift to the right side of my lane (I'm in the right most lane). The stupid rodent (I know it's not a rodent) is PAST my path... he's MADE IT. Then, as I'm 8 feet away about to safely go by him, THE F^&*ER DOES A 180 AND TRIES TO GO BACK TO WHERE HE CAME FROM and squishes himself under my front tire. In my rear view mirror I see his tail twitching in the air from a puddle of squirrel guts.

 

hahahaha he was asking for it! i would of done the same thing. good job.

 

Yes i did and i wasnt considering that a joke, i was being serious its a bitch to drive home here because of all the animals....

 

they actually told us in driving class not to swerve or brake hard for potential roadkill. :dunno:


Somebody HAS GOT to photoshop an image of a squirrel flipping off an oncoming car :rofl:
