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

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.

well, you shouldn't have stopped short but the person behind you should have been at a safe distance behind you. I think it's a both-at-fault thing. the squirrel got screwed most.

that person behind you should have been more attentive AND not following so close. their fault, the end.

cant belive that you put others at risk like that for a squirrel. in sweden it's forbidden to stand on the breaks for anything smaller than a roe deer.

Don't endanger *HUMANS* by taking evasive action to avoid a small animal in the road. A good--if gross--guideline is that if it's small enough to eat in one sitting, just run it over. "It was the other guy's fault" makes a bad epitaph.
