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 swerved out of the way to avoid hitting a squirrel, and in the process hit another squirrel. 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

Slammed

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.

NEVER slam the breaks for an animal! Especially not a squirrel!

YDI for valuing an animal life over human life. Once saw a car do that on a highway for a rabbit. The rabbit got away, the car that slammed on it's brakes was fine, the family in the car behind were all killed when they were forced to slam on their brakes and were crushed by the truck behind them.

According to the Ohio Department of Motor Vehicles You are NOT SUPPOSED TO BRAKE for a squirrel When I took my driving test a squirrel DID run out into the road and I did NOT brake I didn't lose points and I was told that most people did brake and did lose points

You're being a dick and you're NOT good at it. Stop acting like a 12 year old and leave such behavior to the professionals.

YDI for not checking the mirror before you braked; if you had seen that the car behind you couldn't stop in time, you should have kept driving. FYL for seeing the squirrel die anyway. :(
