Wombats in particular are buggers here - they have a habit of shooting straight out at great speed. Those buggers can move a hell of a lot faster than you'd think. I've had a few wallabies slam into the side of my vehicles as well.

It is particularly dangerous when one steps out in front of you while travelling at 110kph on the great western highway. Last one I almost avoided, but caught him on the edge of the nearside front guard. He did a piroette spinning like a top. Dragged him off the road which is something rarely done. With all regard to truckies, it is often the case they plow thru one with their huge bullbars, then keepgoing. Jason

It's most often the case of kangaroos running into you (and then, more often than not from the side), rather than the other way around.....
