I guess, if I had to pick, I'd rather run over a snake than a squirrel, like BF did last week...I, of course, will lock up the brakes in my car to avoid them, and always honk well ahead of time, since I can spot them from far away, since I am always looking for them. Then I scream out the window- "Get away from the road!!!"
I've run over a snake once, maybe twice, mountain biking. It's hard not to, they come out of the long grass and across the trail before you can react. Luckily, the snake I ran over was ok when I stopped to check. "Mr. Snake, Mr. Snake, are you all right?" I moved a snake out of the trail once, too, since it was halfway done with eating a squirrel, right in the middle of the trail...

Um, did you shake him? Activate the EMS? Ascertain that he had an airway? Where is a snake's heart anyway?

Move to NZ!
No snakes live there, neither snakes nor snake products can be legally brought into the country.

Drink coffee and do stupid things faster with more energy.
