Nobody told me about road kill
What an unpleasant experience that was
Driving to work yesterday and the car in front hits a rabbit.
Ok s**t happens.
Unfortunately I went over it as well
No windscreen
Covered in rabbit blood and guts
Very unpleasant.
Still I suppose it could have been worse..
Cow s**t.
Experience is what you get when you don't get what you want!!!

Wait until you've run over a badger that's been dead a few days...you'll NEVER get rid of the smell.

I once collided with two magpies which were squabbling on a grass verge and fell into my path just as I passed them. The car I was driving at the time
had a mesh grille over the air intake leading to the heater.
I hit them so fast that they literally minced themselves going through the mesh and I was picking black, white & red goo out of the heater ducts
for weeks!
Cheers,
Raz

Part of my journey to the station every morning is down a narrow country lane. Yesterday a squirrel was in the middle of the road - dodged left -
dodged right - dodged left again - splat!
I'm driving along thinking "stay in one place and I'll miss you!"...
...and I know grey squirrels are vermin that deserve all they get, but I don't like squishing them.

Pheasants arn't known for brain power. Let's face it, the posh knobs have to get their servents to shoo them into the air so they're
more fun to shoot at!

one of the most weird and futile accidents in spain happened a while ago on a two lane motorway where a kind of wild boar decided to cross the
motorway and a truck hit it. the boar went flying to the opposite lanes where a merc doing over 80 hit it straight on....
the boar then bounced back to the other lane where it was squished by another lorry. results? an obviously dead boar, but also a family (the merc) and
a truck driver... roadkill huh?

Driveing in spain
we can talk about it very long or very short but my opinion is they just don´t know when they can and when they can´t.....
offcourse this example is a extreme one
but as soon they see over here the sign that you can overtake the indicator lights come on and you see them swing out..
if they see a front commer then they just flick out the indicator again and the rest have to brake..
also you see before a corner a over take free symbol, sow overtaking in a corner is permitted...
anyway points have reached also this continent sow we will see...
The above comments are always meant to be from the above persons perspective.
