A couple weeks ago, I was driving a slightly hilly county road when I came over a hill and there was a pickup completely stopped in my lane. I could have made the stop, but it would have been close.
There was no on-coming traffic so I swerved over and passed in the other lane.
When I was even with the truck I saw a man and woman looking down and ahead. Then I saw it..they were stopped for a small paint turtle that was in his lane.
He could have easily straddled the thing with his tires...they aren't that fast.
