7. ummm sorry. I agree with guy; not the judge
In 1985 I hit a golden retriever that suddenly ran out between two parked cars. I was doing less than 25 mph. It was unavoidable, and scary.

The dog had to have his hip put back in and wear a sling for a few weeks--(I took it straight to the vet without looking for an owner--he was in pain--vet clinic less than 3 blocks away).

The owners (wealthy) tried to make me pay the bill--it was actually their vet that I took the dog to--

kid you not.

And my car needed work.

Fuck that. I would never have done anything to hurt that dog--I would never have driven off in a million years, and left that fellow on the street to find his way home injured.

But, they offered me nothing, and asked for money.
