few days ago I was driving my car very fast cause i was on a fast road and I hit little sparrow and that made me very sad . They always stay on the road until the last minute, till the car is very near them but then somehow fly in the safety - and I admire them for that. That time I also expected him to fly in the air but I hit him and I saw his poor little body on the road in my mirror. It's bothering me still. But there's nothing I could do. I could turn the wheel but that would be dangerous for me and the drives near me. Few months ago one man was killed cause he was trying to avoid the dog on the road.
I know that it may sound terrible but if you see an animal on the road don't try to avoid it unless you're driving very slow.
