Haven't hit anything yet in my 1.5 years of driving but at least here in the Inland Empire, there seems to be an increase in road kill, especially along the freeways O_o On my way to school I see about 5 dead animals on the road, some there for days/weeks. I also remember the main road that we walked along coming back from middle school always had dead skunks... Right by the most popular Jack in the Box ever (or at least it seemed like it)
Witnessed:
Riding with my mom, we saw what seemed to be a brown plastic grocery bag floating across the slow lane on the freeway. As we got closer the car in front hit it and the poor squirrel wriggled its hind legs frantically as it darted back to the shoulder :( My mom was freaking out...
Close call:
Once during our trip to Kenya we borrowed my uncles Camry like Toyota Carina to go somewhere at night (4 people in the car,trunk full of luggage). While speeding along a main hwy in Nairobi we noticed the cars along side suddenly drop back. My dad sped on at about 110KPH until we saw some suicidal people carrying big pack 3 deep across the 3 lanes of traffic. How we missed all of them I still don't know, but I just remember lots of screeching tires and the dead silence afterward.
