Police Were Called To Scene Of Horse Versus Car Accident In Illinois

I think for the majority of us when we get behind the wheel of our vehicle the goal is to arrive safely to our destination. We would like to avoid hitting any person, place, or thing. That includes animals. Unfortunately, animals don't have that commonsense to not run into a busy street in front of moving cars. There's that moment when you hold your breath, try to stop or swerve, and hope you don't hit one.

According to Patch Plainfield...

A brown-and-white horse escaped from the fenced-in area of a farm and collided with a car at about 1:15 p.m. on Heggs Road near 119th Street, near Plainfield, a sheriff's spokesperson told Patch.

You don't have a chance. Especially, if you're driving in rural areas in Illinois at night. In those cases, you better be on the lookout for deer because you never know when they'll jump out in front of you. If you hit a deer, there's a good chance your vehicle is going to be totaled, and deer don't have car insurance.

Sometimes, the animal will run into you. Deer in Illinois are also know for doing that. In fact recently, one of my buddies was out biking at Rock Cut State Park and a deer jumped out of nowhere and took him out. That's not a fun way to get a concussion.

In a rural area of Plainfield, a horse escaped from its pen at a local farm. Of course, it took off running. The animal came upon and road, and didn't stop. The horse smacked into the side of a car. Luckily, the horse and driver were fine. Unfortunately, the vehicle was seriously damaged. The driver was approaching an intersection, so he was slowing down. I think that helped the situation.
