Today, while driving my new car, a squirrel ran in front of me so I slammed on my brakes. The person behind me didn't notice and rear-ended me. The squirrel got hit by a car going the opposite direction. FML

Today, I accidentally ran over a squirrel on the road. I was late for work so I didn't stop. Later, someone keyed the word PETA into the side of my car. FML

Today, while driving home I saw a few deer running beside me. I stopped to let them go in front. Instead, one face-plants, ramming into the side of my new car. FML

Today, I was driving my new car home when I came around a sharp turn to see a groundhog in the road. I kindly stopped and allowed it to cross when all of the sudden a car slammed into the back of mine. Then, another car went flying around us. That car hit and killed the groundhog. FML

Today, I ran to my car and zoomed to work to avoid being late. I was in such a hurry, I forgot to close all my windows. When I got back to my car, I found a dead squirrel inside. FML

Today, I swerved off the road and hit a tree in order to avoid hitting a dog that came out of nowhere. Don't worry, I didn't hit him. The person behind me did, though. FML

Today, for the first time ever, while I was driving I ran over a squirrel. It was in front of three little girls at their lemonade stand. FML

Today, I crashed my car. I saw a deer getting ready to run into the middle of the road, and I was very sleepy, so I panicked and slammed on the brakes, causing me to lose control of the car on the wet road. After I hit a tree, I realized that the deer was a plastic lawn ornament. FML

Hmmm... that's why you don't "slam on your brakes" for small rodents:(

You're supposed to keep driving unless it's a animal that can cause an accident, like a deer. Otherwise, surprise surprise, the abruptent stop can cause an even bigger accident than hitting a squirrel. I'm 16 and I know this.

although throughout the number of years I have been driving I've NEVER hit a squirrel, if there was somebody behind me I wouldn't have stopped. for this exact reason. and this exact reason I said YDI.

Squirrels are the stupidest animal. They run right in front of our cars right as we come down the road.

you shouldnt have stopped, if it were its destiny to die, thats its destiny and no one can change it. Reminds me of a story that happened to me awhile ago: There was this little bird, with a broken wing, in the middle of the road. When I saw it, I immediately parked my car on the other side of the road and ran to save it. When I got close, literally 1 meter away, a city bus squashed it and its blood got on my shoe. And as i was waiting for the traffic to clear up, I witnessed a kid rob my wallet and cell phone from my 5 meters away car. FML
