I will miss it if I can safely do so without getting rear-ended. I don't swerve at speed for animals or things in the road. Check the mirror, brake and go 'round.

 Attached FileI don't care for snakes. I've found if you don't mess with them, they won't with you. Everyone stay cool and go about your business. I've run across some huge rattlers here. Mutual respect. |

My granfather taught me to hit the breaks and skid over it as to not only injure it.
At least with rattlers |

If I can safely stop, I'll move it off the road in the direction it was pointed. If not, snake dies. I like snakes but I'm not totaling my car or getting killed for one.

If on a farm road, ID it then form plan from there. On the highway, it's the snake's call what happens.

When i was a boy (and didn't know better) i had a predudice toward snakes and would kill them all on sight.
A very large rat snake now hangs around my barn and I've left rattlers be on trails. I did warp a kayak paddle last year while fishing a creek...Senior Water Moccosin swimming on to the bow of my yak was a line he should not have crossed. :) I would nit run over it unless it was unavoidable. |

Had this scenario happen last year with a big copperhead.
He ziggy when he should have zagged. Giant triangle head. Probably a good 2 inches fat. I didn't even feel bad as it was across the road from a house with kids shit in the yard. |

They kill rodents with the sheer strength of their bite. One person I used to talk with on kingsnake.com said his one indigo bite hurt more than a copperhead envenomation. |
