Large serpents such as that are considered top predators. As such they have few natural enemies. Therefore, they show no fear in being fully exposed to their environment as they move about.

Snakes like that just haven't met the automobile yet. But when they do, they are doomed to become nothing more than big speed bumps.

Since almost all large apex serpents have already been exterminated within the Continental United States by man's activities, I see no reason this tropical newcomer will fare any better.
