Sorry to hear that, and yes, certainly a good reason to try out a different kind of bumper

ya when I first started driving I would try to swerve and brake. Most of the time now I will do that only if I know there are no other cars around, but even if there aren't I'll keep going at the same speed.... got places to go, people to see.

Sorry bout you accident man!
I think the worst instint is not swerving, but braking. Swerving, provided one looks before swerving, avoids the accident. Braking doesn't assure no hitting anybody (one might not brake on time) plus might cause the car behind one to hit us... |

swerving all depends on the moment and situation its all a judgment call. that coon came out of nowhere and was running. still havent fixed the car just looking at all my options and still need to get an estimate. i am sad
