I drove over a Pheasant going about 70 mph. It came across the road and there was nothing I could do. There was a cloud of feathers in the rear view mirror. I was not too happy. A Pheasant is a beautiful bird and I hated to kill one with my car.
-
Yeah, Accidentally, that's it..... Kidding! I hit a Kangaroo, once, which did some pretty hardcore damage to my car.
-
Two dogs within a week of each other. I felt terrible. One coyote out in the middle of nowhere, and several squirrels.
-
I ran over a cat once, back when I first got my license (actually, the cat ran right into the side of my car). I was so shaken up that I had to pull over and cry for like twenty minutes. Last week, I hit THE world's fattest possum. I heard it POP! when it went under the wheel, and then I threw up in my mouth a little.

I hit a dog once. Broke my heart. A whole pack of dogs came out of the brush in the dark one evening. I felt so bad. There were no houses around just rural countryside. I wished I had found someone or something. I felt bad for weeks after and avoided that road for the longest time.
-
Accidentally, no. Shot a couple of horses on a drive-by though.
-
Many. I cry every time.
-
Not yet but i havnt been driving long! i have been assured that i will experience my first road kill soon :D
-
yeah i ran over a squirrel near yorkshire(u.k) couple of years ago,there was no way of avoiding it
-
no thank god. i think i would have an anxiety attack if that ever happened. exspecially having cats if someone hit my cat i would be devastated i would know how they felt.

Western NY: a wild turkey tried to cross the road but got my grill instead. West Central Florida: an armadillo wanted to cross the road late at night. My front wheel crunched this poor critter.
-
Several. Squirrels, snakes (punctured a tire on the fangs), skunks (I had to replace the tires for the smell... Firestone almost wouldn't let me bring the car to them), and birds.
-
Never. I always honk my horn when something is in the street. Scares them away every time.
-
A cat was almost across the road when a motorcycle came by and scared the cat right under my wheel. I cried.
-
Yes. When my dad was driving a hen came into the way and got killed.
-
A road runner and a rabbit.
-
Not while it was driving - that would be dangerous!
-
I've seemed to have been lucky not killing an animal while driving.
-
never 'cause I don't drive, lol
-
Yep, an Opossum. That poor little thing never had a chance! SQUISH! Bump...OOPS! I cried. LOL
-
Ive ran over a few possums, had a couple birds commit suicide by flying into my windshield, and millions of bugs have also lost their lives on my windshield. I've squished frogs crossing the road and the occassional mouse or shrew that darts out suddenly.
-
Yeah, a squirrel and a seagull. That I know of anyways. I used to have a huge bronco so I don't know if I ran over any animals with that or not. Can't really tell. lol Haven't ran over anything since getting my car though. *knock on wood*
-
Yes, poor creatures. Millions of moths, bees, mosquitoes, butterflies, a kangaroo, a few birds. I hate the fact that our forms of transport just annihilate all the other creatures on our planet.
