92 youre an idiot it was sarcasm.

oops..I commented on the wrong Fml

I didn't even need to look at the comments to know people were going to say YDI. But OP, this should not be a YDI. People are morons and obviously don't know the road rules. If someone runs up the back of you, REGARDLESS of why you stopped, it is THEIR fault because they did not leave enough room between themselves and the next car (you). You might have to slam on the brakes for a child running out onto the road, a tree falling over, a car running a red light, a big animal, or a small animal. No matter the reason, the person behind is responsible for leaving themselves enough stopping room. If they haven't, it is their fault. In fact, most people I know have been taught you must never SWERVE if an animal is on the road (because you might hit a pedestrian or oncoming car), but instead, you should brake. This way you do NOT endanger any other people on the road (unless, apparently, some moron behind you is travelling too close to your car). The only appropriate time to swerve is if you're going to hit a person (eg. pedestrian or car).

am I the only person who tries to hit squirrels that run in front of me?

ya I'm gonna have to ask you if your retarded? why would you slam on the brakes for a friggin squirrel and jeopardize your own safety? you shouldn't mind little critters running across the road

one little squirrel . i'd hit it to save my car ..

hint: never stop for animals it causes accidents

Your a moron and shouldn't be allowed to drive. You dont slam on your brakes for squirrels.

you're a moron

who cares if it's a rodent or not a dead small animal isn't worth a wreak period.
