From my experience, the animals are more the stupid ones that jump out in front of the car unexpectedly. I once tried to dodge a raccoon but every time I swerved a direction, it followed me and then jumped towards my car last second :/
It kind of sucks infrastructurally for sure. I dunno. I’ve had the thought that at least if I could go over and harvest some of it then that might at least make it a little less stomach-churning, ironically, but that’s kind of my weird instinct.
Makes me think… How many vegans refuse to drive?
I don’t care about most bugs.
But the very real and high risk of hurting a beloved animal did play into my choice to be an escooter/biker.
Killing people is also super high up there, but it’s just less likely.
I’m ngl. The amount of carcasses I see along the road everyday heading to work has made me want to stop driving for years now.
I’m not even vegan but seeing all those rotting animals decorating ditches day in and day out fills me with rage.
And knowing some stupid fucks go out of their way to hit animals makes my blood boil.
