I don't drive but a fox once walked towards me in the dark and I didn't swerve (or move in any way). I wanted to see how close it would come. In the end, it brushed me as it went past.
Good thing you live in England where there's no rabies!! Here you'd be a fool to let a wild animal wander towards you!! Rabid animals are fucking scary!! They're like zombies.
Yeah, it's one of those things I rarely thing about. I saw a rabid dog when I was a kid but that was about it. There was supposed to be a rise in rabies when the tunnel to France opened with the scaremongers talking about rabid vampire bats. It never happened, though.
Wow! Red or grey? I work night-shift, and I had this one little red fox who would run out in front of my car every night in about the same spot for over a week. Eventually I saw him/her hit on the side of the road where someone else had struck him. Broke my heart. I swerve for critters to preserve the population, even reptiles. ^_^
It was a red one (the grey ones either didn't make it here, or have been wiped out). I kind of like being reminded that they're out there; that the planet isn't just a human building site and that other species are living, even on the bits we've made into building sites. :)
When driving, do you swerve to HIT or MISS animals?
