And eagles who decided that eating flat rabbits was more important than getting out of the way of Kenworths.

Or the crow who didn't understand and was hit by the Kenworth when the 'lookout' crow called out 'truck' instead of 'caw caw' (pronounced, 'car car') [bigrolf]

You can't trust those crows:

Very smart birds crows, a lot smarter than kangaroos, that's for sure. In my thousands of miles as an interstate truck driver, (Kenworth of course) I have never hit one.

And when they are in the middle of my lane feeding on road kill they are smart enough to only move the required distance to not get hit.

All other birds fly off.

Yep. They're right up there with pigs. Never hit one of them either. Of course, they may be a little more scared of a Scania...

I'm right up there with pigs as well. Why would one put themselves in front of a speeding Kenworth/Scania(insert other truck make here) doing warp speed with 20 T on the back pray tell?

Nope not crazy.:Rolling:

When we bought our first D1 we bought a little plastic do dad that fixed under the front bumper which was to emit a high frequency sound to warn 'roos etc. as the air rushed through a small venturi

Must have worked as we never hit one on a couple of trips to Brisvegas/Snowies etc.:Rolling:

Then again we may have just been pure arsey.

Nearly hit a slow moving Wombat though, but they are slow ****ers at the best of times I gather. And probably deaf. [bighmmm][bigrolf]

Yep, that was it. I had those things stuck on every truck I drove, and a more exy thing on the coach. Lost count of the roos I hit. Got a cow up near Coppabella once. Those noisemaker things don't work.

I remember slowing down and stopping beside one of those years ago, it kept going and hit the back door of the car and put a dent in it.[biggrin][bigsad]

I have hit 3 'roos in the last couple of years,two destroyed the boots on the steering shaft on the van,both left side.Hit during the day.
