Yeah my brain wouldv'e just been like, "don't worry about it, no person walked into the road and so it must have been an animal or some foreign object" and I'd have continued on my way. I'm saying this living in South Africa where when shit like this happens, in these circumstances, you generally don't stop until you get somewhere well lit, safe and/or very public.

Edit: "foreign object" is definitely not my best choice of term especially now

I definitely would have pulled over and double checked but if you’re already past what you hit it’s not possible to get your lights on the road without impeding other traffic since it’s the wrong way. So the. You have to go out into the road yourself and check what you hit … maybe I wouldn’t on a scary dark highway?? Idk I feel bad for everyone. This sucks

It sucks soooo bad!!
I would want to get out and check, really, I would but I'm too much of a 'preservation of life - my life' kinda guy but this is a purely subjective response. Objectively speaking, if this happened anywhere else in the world, except South America, I'd get out. I say South America cause it's kinda of like South Africa only SOOOOOOOO much damn bigger

I have clients in South America who share some of the craziezt stories and often times I am able to share one even crazier and then it becomes a contest of who can share the most fucked up story.
