So I Smoked a Raccoon...which in turn smoked my bumper!

So Im driving home from the movies with my gf on the 410 South and Im leading the pack of cars behind me doing about 115 km/h...Then my gf says "watch out..." next thing I know this Raccoon the size of a small deer, probably weighed between 50-75 lbs. starts trotting across 5 lanes...Now I cant swerve or brake hard or I would have caused a disasted so I said "FACK IT"...take the beast head on and sent this thing 2 ft. in the air...trust me you'd never believe how fast a raccoon can go from 0-115km...lol...anyways to make a long story short the fat focker mangled my front bumper and skirt plus shattered my washer fluid jug...

At the end of the day this bastard is costing me about $575 for a new bumper, paint and washer jug...That was the most a night out at the movies has ever cost...

Sometimes its better to hit the fawker head on than try to avoid it, causing you to slam into the guard rail.

That's too bad about your car though.

I'm sorry. Your detail 'bout the fat racoon just giggled me off my chair...LOL.

But, I am sorry about the damage to your car. When do you figure it will all be repaired?
