—”couldn’t get out of the way of a YUGE maintenance vehicle ?”
In my misspent youth, I briefly worked at a vehicle maintenance facility.
Friday evenings after closing was a social period, and at some point, someone would shout “Friday Night Race”!
Everyone would run to the dispatch office and grab a random key from the wall. Then run to the lot looking for the vehicle...The first one to make a lap of the parking lot gets free pizza that night.
Many of the cars/trucks are NOT operational; just like some of the participants.

I could easily believe that some wildlife was lost in the game.

Owls get hit by vehicles all the time. They regularly swoop low for prey and if a car is driving by, it gets hit by the grill or windshield.

I’ve narrowly missed hitting an owl on several occasions.
