Slamming brakes on for small animals with someone behind you is dangerous, human life is more important.
i thought drivers were supposed to keep a safe distance so they wouldn't run into a car which had to stop suddenly? (i.e. 1 car length per every 10 mph.) I was also told I was not supposed to overdrive my ability to stop if something should suddenly appear ON the road ahead of me... I wonder how many motorcyclists have been killed by the car behind them?
