Mar 16, 2019 at 11:30 comment added Russell McMahon @RancherBill ... I have a nice photo sequence of a near miss with my wife applying full brakes to our hired camper van and me taking photos :-). "Roo bars" are a thing. || One must NEVER swerve as it does not decrease chance of hitting a random motion roo but does add to rollover chances. | We met two men silly enough to ride a hired Harley in the outback at dusk. They arrived unscathed but shattered from the near misses.
Mar 16, 2019 at 11:28 comment added Russell McMahon @RancherBill - And then there's Australia :-). I live "across the ditch" in NZ - about 2000 miles across the Tasman but get to visit occasionally. The "best" time is around dawn and dusk when the kangaroos abound (pun noted but unintended :-)) and all their mates crawl out to help. A kangaroo will stand by the roadside until you just about reach it and the flee. Fleeing consists of hopping either away from the road OR across the road and which they are going to do is like trying to predict a soccer penalty kick. ...
Mar 14, 2019 at 18:13 comment added Rancher Bill Very appreciative of your advice. Will switch to a relay setup. The desire to have both lights function while on brights is because we live on a cattle ranch in the country. She drives on country roads with deer, hogs, etc. jumping out everywhere and then long roads through the ranch with wildlife, cattle, horses, buffalo, etc. I just want her as safe as possible. Thank you again.
