Oh my god that was so scary, dark as fuck outside going 55 on country roads when I see a weird dark spot ahead-oh fuck that’s a family of bears. I swerved and slammed the brakes and everything is okay but holy fuck.
It was a mother black bear and 2-3 cubs, they were super cute for the second I could see them.
Hmm yeah I should maybe see about doing that. My friend did exactly what you described a couple years ago, swerved to avoid a sandhill crane and spun out and hit a tree. Terrifying.
