Aww...the poor old dude...
Several years ago I saw a video made by a psychology student concerning how drivers react to various animals crossing the road. She set up a couple of hidden cameras on a rural county paved road, then waited for results. The fake turtles and frogs she had set out people generally tried to avoid hitting. One lady even got out of her car and moved the turtle to a safe location! But the fake snakes did very poorly. The most egregious case was the county sheriff, who not only drove over the fake snake on purpose, he backed up and drove over it a few more times for good measure. ----- Bob/Chris
