This is exactly the reason why it is so important to have the riding skills and techniques at your fingertips so that you can be the very best rider you can be and so that you can handle sudden situations like this. I'm glad you were about to swerve to avoid hitting it and that you didn't target fixate or stab the brakes instead.
It's so important to have these tools at your fingertips so in emergency situations you can make the quickest and best decisions possible.
Each situation requires a different action depending on the situation. I've hit a bunny once because it was safer to hit it than try and avoid it. I slammed on the brakes to avoid hitting a deer (knowing that no one was behind me and trusting that decision over swerving as being safer) I've also swerved to avoid hitting a trash can on the freeway and avoided many riders that have crashed in front of me.
What are some of the survival reactions that crop up when faced with sudden situations like this?
Good job.
