I don’t think he’s ever hit any animals. Of course, those are never the driver’s fault.

I used to drive buses. If an animal steps on the road, you just keep your course and never swerve.

Right. I don’t think I’d make a good bus/semi driver. One year to Utah my family and I saw so many dear killed alongside the road. I think we stopped counting at 30. Poor animals.

A few decades back, I had just landed at Logan and was driving to my hotel in some Boston suburban town on a fine late spring day. I moved into the left turn lane which had a red left turn arrow and I was probably below 10 mph when a squirrel ran in front of me. Seeing that there was nobody behind me, so I slowed a bit quickly to avoid squishing it.

Just then a guy pulled up on my right and started screaming at me “We don’t stop for squirrels around here!!!”

Welcome to Boston!
