Forgive me for the fuzzy photo. It is a narrow country road which is fairly busy. I could only quickly stop and snap this.
Now, imagine if both deer and turtles cross this narrow road at the same time! Pandemonium!

and thought birbs were not real already (drones)
but u tots making the case for robot turtles there
i like that idea

Robot Turtles! Hah! Imagine if they had an infinite power source and once set free they just roam about gaining experiences and having fun by pretending to cross the road, but changing their "minds". Drivers will be frustrated at the turtles changing their minds and also happy to see a turtle.

deer as fast as shit when they wanna be. late at night i tagged the shit out of one, about 10 minutes later i see another truck driving towards me from the opposite direction. they rolled down the window and said they saw the deer i hit about 2 miles down the road the way they came, limping


/e hit hard enough that my toyota tacoma was more or less totalled. the front bumper was pushed so far back it dug into my front left tire

My 05 Ford escape is
3-0 VS blacktail deer
1-0 VS neighbor's dog
Dog survived, deer did not. None of the 4 were my fault, it's like they were all suicidal. From the ditch standing still to diving into my front bumper

Bumpers a little fucked up but it was before I hit the first deer. All 3 deer were claimed and eaten

i didnt even see the deer is the thing. bum fucked egypt, cornfields on both sides. nearest street lamp was a good 40 miles away. blindsided fr

Lat's be honest with ourselves, if a small box turtle came running out of the darkness out of the cornfields, your cars and pickups would be flying in the air at least 50' (~15m). The turtle would let out a mighty roar, a few bull-like snorts, and it would give you both a single wink as it continues on its way.

OMG! And, in a turn, too. They are good and/or fortunate!
Three deer, a buck and two does leapt across a rural street while I was on my Katana 600. It was by some miracle that the third deer had made it across as I was trying hard to brake and downshift and keep from going into the ditch to avoid them.
