Dog Suicide - Toyota Yaris Forums

The only thing ive hit in the yaris is an armadillo at like 60. I hit him dead center and all it did was scratch the underside of my front bumper. Not too bad for me but i hate hitting any animals.

Once in my 240sx i hit a raccoon going almost 100mph. I honestly don't know what happened to it. It did no damage to my car and it wasn't anywhere around where i hit it after i turned around to come back.

Also had a friend who swerved once to miss a dog while going 60mph in an explorer. Needless to say it didnt turn out well. He still hit the dog and hit a guard rail ended up smashing his face into the steering wheel and his passenger ended up with like a fractured wrist and broken femur. It was a bad deal.

As far as domestic pets go I will do anything i can to avoid hitting them but sometimes its unavoidable..

Man, a raccoon going almost 100 MPH is something I want to stay out of the way of!

Careful, it may still be zipping around out there...

I hit a deer the other week hard enough to knock it across the road. No damage to the car whatsoever. I couldn't believe it.

A couple of months ago I made a very tall turtle a little less tall.
Next time I was changing my oil I found a perfectly scalped, round peice of turtle shell wedged in the frame of my car.
