Things we hit on the road
I wonder what strange things we've hit on the road ? horses, cows, dears, anything.
For example, I killed a dear once over the 83 in Texas, I came out of a curve and it was just there standing in the middle. I also hit an eagle once !
I can't believe I did that, I mean the eagle just didn't move, both were in the middle of the road (dear and eagle)!!!! I didn't have a chance to stop. In a mexican road I hit a dog it was in the middle of nowhere ! I will try to remember what strange things I've hit during my road trips ! 
So, what have you people hit in the road ?

Around here.. at least 1-2 deer are killed per day by cars. There are so many around you can't drive without seeing several - no matter what time of year it is. I have been fortunate not to have hit one myself. I've hit a raccoon and a squirrel once. I'll usually try to slow down to let em' pass but sometimes they run out a little too late.
I like hitting soda cans.. they're fun to aim for.

In Florida, I hit a parrot, it dropped right behind the truck and this ricered out camaro behind me picked it up with the front ground effects, just an explosion of green feathers. Another time in Connecticut, I hit a seagull. I was driving along by the shoreand the bird was kind of floating on the breezeover the road just a little slower than I was going. It hit just at the bottom of the windsheild and slowly slid up and over the top. It took me a while to wash it "call sign" off the truck, the wipers couldn't even take care of it.

I hit a Seagull once. Someone had dumped some fries just off the off ramp to 17 S. There was a swarm of them, dodging in and out of traffic, and the one I hit didn't dodge fast enough 
Hit him on the front bumper, went under the truck, bouncing around. Must have got caught in the drive train at some point, becuase the mess that came out the back didn't resemble what went under 
Nasty [rated "R"] birds. . .

I hit a Fairmont once, but the SOB was driving on the wrong side of the road. Totalled my van, tore up my back and he got to drive his hoopty home. Then I sued his butt. 
Hit a cat once too, but we settled out of court.
