When ya got someone that has never driven on country road and you tell them not to swerve for roos make sure ya say not the died one you can swerve around them if safe.
My mum is bad for tailing I tell her too. I say there is another lane there go around them or get in other lane. She never did it before getting new new car.
I know when I go down SW West Aust I go a bit slower than what the local would like, but I dont know the roads as well and the condition of roads down there are not the best and I dont want to part of a HUGE karri tree like so many one people down there. hitting a tree at 110 that is wider than the car dosent leave much chance of surviving.

Good point about car speeding up on overtaking lane. The driver is not confident to drive full speed on a small tight windy road but once they see big open space they do, they should also let the car behind pass before speeding up.

Following behind to aviod wildlife dosent work. Mum tried it an emu came running into the side of our car.
Roo can move fast too. was in work truck and in corner of my eye seen roo out passenger window jumping along side us then hit the brakes it hit straight on in front of us. left a perfect dust mark shape of qantas roo of plane tail.
