Pheasants

How much damage can be done to your car if you hit one?

I’ve seen one plastered to the grille of a Citroen C3. I really don’t want to have one stuck to my little lady. But, after this evenings drive home first case slamming on the brakes right after a bend because one ran out and the second the car in front of me doing an emergency stop to avoid hitting one, I think I’d take my chances and hit it.

I got such a fright the first time as all my stuff in my handbag came flying out and all over the footwell, don’t get me started on the bang (I suspect that was the hardback book landing on my hypo box) and me veering off into a stopping space.

I’m ok, my cars ok that bird is not ok...it’s thicker than cement.

That sounds gross Sam.

It wasn't nice queenie, was just so pleased that I had worked out where the smell was coming from.

I can just imagine...but hey you found it, it’s gone that’s the main thing :)

I don't know anything about hitting a pheasant ... but I can tell you if you plough into a kangaroo at 110 kmh that the roo is "eliminated" and the vehicle is grossly damaged at grille, bonnet, windscreen, roof and boot lid .... and the engine is crushed .... and all 4 wheels are pushed out at odd angles ... and the brakes are cooked .... and the airbags deploy
