    I hit a deer once (in my suburban) so I won't tell that story.
    However, I was home visiting family in Missourah and took a joy ride on this state road called "M". It's the shit. Anyways, it's got a bunch of the rolling hills, so I was trucking along at about 80 and came to the top of one (like a freakin' roller coaster, this road is so bitchin'), and this squirrel was sitting in the middle of my lane with his head up like he had heard me coming and was trying to figure out what it was. He even had his head sorta cocked..(wtf is that noise?) Anyways, I went right over him. I didn't feel a thing, but I could swear when I looked in the rear view mirror, all I saw was a squirrel body (sans head) laying limp in the middle of my lane.
    RIP.

    I'll never forget that drive. or that highway.

    p.s. I hit a possum once in an F-350. bumpbump. that is all.

      Worst thing I've ever hit...bum on a bike. Yep thats right, bum women riding her bike. I was at work(car dealership, parts dept) and it was near sunset so the sun was at that perfect spot to be right in your eyes. So I was making a run to a satellite wherehouse in our parts truck, and after retrieving the part I was starting to leave. I began pulling out, looked left, looked right, and looked left again. Didn't see anything so I began to accelerate slowly out of the lot. Sure enough, as soon as I start moving, this hagrid middle aged bum of a woman comes high tailing on her bike right out in front of me. Keep in mind that she was on the sidewalk, heading the wrong direction. In AZ we have designated bike lanes for people to ride in. So basically I barely clipped her with the front of the truck, but it was enough to send her sprawling and her misc items of value everywhere. Of course I jumped out of the truck to make sure she was alright, but she was pissed and demanded our company phone number....the whole deal. She was basically just looking for free handouts of course. Funny thing is, I could have killed her but would not have been held accountable because she was not following the traffic laws. So of course she has to call and talk to my manager and he had to deal with the shitstorm, but I was free and clear. And that bitch was crazy.

      Abbreviated version: hit bitch bum on bike not following traffic laws, she wasn't injured, but made for a fairly entertaining story.

      also have hit numerous birds, always and entertaining time when that happens.

        The bird thing reminds me, one time when my wife and I were first living together years ago, we hit a bird in her Ford Tempo. Then about 3 hours later, as we were coming out of a restaraunt, we discovered it wedged in the gap between the hood and the top of the front grille. It was kind of messy.

          I was in mom's blazer once on the freeway down in LA. Just cruising along at ~80 and hit a bird dead center in the windshield. Saw it hit the ground behind me in the rear view and it just disintegrated. It was flying towards us when it hit, so... It was LOUD too.

          Also (same trip), coming back, I had a deer run into the side of the car. Hit the rear quarter panel, spun around and landed in the other lane. I think it was alright though as it got up and ran off.

            my dad hit hit a robin in his old 68 mustang and apparently it was plastered in the grille all sprawled out. When he got back home, the cat came and greeted him by grabbing the robin out of the grille and taking off.

            i hit a raccoon once and i was just pissed off that it knocked the lip off my car. but i think thats the worst thing i hit. i dont even know if i killed the fucker.

              Hit a huge jack rabbit (15lbs easy) going 90 in New Mexico. Ripped the type r lip right off my Integra, but no bumper damage. A week later I was changing my oil and there was a peice of flesh that had been baked on the header collector.

                Back when I was a teenager some kid I knew ran over a guy riding a bike. The kid ran a stop sign, and this guy on the bike was crossing the intersection. So he hits him and runs him over. He was an irresponsible douschebag, so he tried to keep going. The guy on the bike gets hung up under this kids truck and gets drug a few hundred feet. Finally this asshole stops, and calls 911. Guy needed airlifted, and sued the kid. The kid is still a fuck up though, and now he has his own kid to raise to be a fuck up.

                  Leash Laws ?? How about speed limit laws ???? LOL damn

                  I flattened the shit out of a huge SKUNK one night. Smelt so bad for days that I kept parking my tahoe next to where some guys I had hired to put a patio in for me at the house so they would smell it instead of stinking the garage up. They cussed me every morning for it too

                    I caught a bird in the shin while on a motorcycle, about 75mph. Left a mofo bruise. A buddy has some pictures of the remains of a hapless Iraqi infantryman they hit with their tank in '91. I'll see if he'll email them to me, I'll post them if you want.

                    Funky shit.

                      My pastor at church told me never to swerve for animals, so I remembered that at that split second and ran the fuckers over. He said it was Kosher, so if I go to hell for that, Im blaming his stupid ass.

                              I ran over an owl while riding a motorcycle.

                              Wen I crashed (late night, rainy as hell in El Cajon) the guy who pulled over to see if I was OK had it in his headlights.

                              The fucking thing got up and flew away.
