Ran over a poor ickle bunny last night and the lass in the passenger seat almost cried... :D

Proof that this forum is useful: I remembered a thread on here from a while ago, so didn't do anything stupid like brake hard or swerve, just kept going and heard a sickening thunk instead. So sorry, no pics of the car in a ditch, but you can have one dead bunny and my thanks :)

I still have to check the wheel arches for any remnants. Might have some stew later :D
 
My mate ran over one before and I nearly cried. He didn't even attempt to slow down which is probably why I thought he was a ****!

I did try explaining to her that I was doing 60 at the time and swerving probably would have ended up with us in a bush/ditch/tree :) I'm "evil", apparently :confused:

Weird thing is that all these animals wait until the last minute before running to the side of the road?

I would/have/do brake hard for animals, not my fault if the person behind is too close. I wouldn't swerve to avoid an animal, but I wouldn't swerve to avoid a human either ;)

No way I would have braked hard seeing as I had a 4x4 up my rear for the past mile or so. I know who would have come off worse.

Dead bunny or Smashed car... not a hard split second decision IMO. If I had no one behind be I'd have slammed on the anchors tbh, I'm not that cruel :)
