I swerved trying to watch my twerk and it was not good, need a good weight loss plan.

Never swerve. I've run over a few cats passing through small towns and it's a bummer, but animals don't get what is going on. You can swerve and they'll panic and dart in the direction you swerved anyway.
I had a stupid deer do that when I was in my car. Dumn critter then skipped across my hood, knocked out a headlight, then took off.QuietStorm and tinytim Thank this. -
Wow, pleasantly surprised by the responses.
Having read so many times 'NEVER swerve, NEVER leave your lane' I expected different responses.Dave_in_AZ Thanks this. -
Came over this little rise, 3 doe standing in the middle of the highway. 2 in my lane, 1 in the oncoming. FULL swerve to try and go between them, and I guess the sound of fanning your brakes is the very best deer scatterer cause the one in oncoming bolted away to that side the one nearest my passenger door started moving to that side, and the other one a little further over from her, bolted as well.
Missed 'em all - Divine Intervention. -

You can get a road kill permit in some states,Just carry a grill with you for that tenderized meat, It is only good for the first few hours so set up a roadside stand of RK BBQ
Grubby and Dave_in_AZ Thank this. -
I would never swerve, if anything smartly ease over as much as possible without flipping the unit over. But mostly just hold my lane true.
