When driving, you hit the animal that suddenly puts its life in danger- you donāt risk your life or your passengers to avoid the animal (using judgement of courseā¦)
When we get the warm/cold, especially on water, a person does NOT trust the ice. The weight difference (between him and a dog). He didnāt know whether the dog would break through the ice or fall in. If that was his assessment, then why the fuck did he go out there??? Itās NOT like it was a 5 year old that escaped its parents.
AND if it was a 5 year old and you feel āsomewhatā sure of the ice you lay your body flat on the ice to distribute weight as you goā¦
