Are they trying to tell me the yearlings were all standing in the same lane within a few feet of each other and didn't spook at the sound of a car coming? Or wander a few feet or yards in either direction, out of the right hand lane? And they know they're being chased but they just end up there at that exact moment. Most of the time if you hit a deer you're gonna hit the break. If this guy'd been paying any attention whatsoever no way that many get taken out. And he'd been going the speed limit of 55 mph with that level of visibility. Sorry but just because you can go the speed limit doesn't mean you should. It's at least failure to reduce speed. You hit something going 60 mph in the fog you're gonna get in trouble for being reckless. Is it normal to go taking that many yearlings out at the same time? I've seen some crazy ones I don't feel happy about taking by themselves much less with 6 other knuckleheads.
I want to know which horses were lost. I realize it's a state secret and all but it's not like there won't be a record of the mare's 2007 offspring being deceased. Go ahead and spit it out once you inform the owners.
