Animals: Today, while driving my new car, a squirrel ran in front of me...

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.

If he sues, it's gonna be very hard for him to win since the person who rear-ended the other person is almost always at fault, and in this case, he is.

True, but breaking for no reason, causing an accident, is also illegal.

I don't think anyone is going to believe it is new now.

Because of your stupid action, you now have to pay your deductible for your insurance to fix your car; the person behind you has to pay theirs; and both of you will see your insurance premiums raised for the next 3 - 7 years. Does the $1,000 - $2,500 you have to shell out make you feel better about trying (and failing) to save a squirrel?

at least you weren't the one responsible for the squirrel's death. You'd have to live with that for the rest of your life. probably see his terrified little face everywhere.. in your dreams.. in your coffee cup ... everywhere you look he'd haunt you.
