Angel, please don't go through second guessing yourself. It was not your fault hitting the dog and on a six lane highway, I really doubt that you could have safely stopped and done anything. You could have been injured or killed yourself had you tried that. When you are driving you have to make snap judgements about what you can do or can't do. I doubt that driving 5 miles an hour slower would have changed what happened and my guess is that had you not hit the poor animal, someone else would have. It was just in the wrong place. I really feel this way, Angel. I am not just saying this because you are one of us.
