to be honest, any kind of accident- native, imported, or other isnt fun...
I had an 8AM flight out of kingsote; 60km drive from Snellings Beach. I wasnt going to ruin a day on KI by staying 'at the airport' for the last sunset, dinner and evening'. Was diligent, allowed 1.5hrs to do the drive.
Wife and I counted over 35 animals on or along the road on that single trip. Didnt hit any.
(Try driving around here -northern california- in deer mating season. Ive been hit in the side door by deer.)
Having said all that, we did agree that telling people not to drive sunset to sunrise is prolly a decent suggestion.....
