I was driving home and came around a curve and there was a largish opossum in my lane. I did not brake, accelerate, swerve or waver as it darted back and forth in the illumination of my headlights. At approximately 60mph I contacted the marsupial with my right front tire with the slightest thump- not enough to trigger the traction control. I could follow it's trajectory by the thumps on the undercarriage of my truck until it passed under the right rear tire causing a slight bump in the rear end that was no more unsettling than a small belch.

I didn't even look in the rear view mirror.



They pay people to shoot opossums in my country, they were introduced from Aussie and eat all the native fauna...people go out of their way to run them over.
