Roadkill
Posted by honeymoonbabygirl@reddit | plano | View on Reddit | 5 comments
I have noticed a lot of roadkill. I am not sure if it’s people’s apathy towards animals or the lack of awareness when driving…especially on residential streets. Slow down and pay attention please. It’s disturbing - ducks, cats, opossums, raccoons, squirrels, rabbits, etc.
Also, the city of Plano could do a better job getting hit animals off the road so they aren’t rotting into the pavement so other metal machinery can continuously run over them.

The squirrels and rabbits around my neighborhood just seem to have a death wish. And there are so many of them, a few are bound to get hit.

You think people are intentionally running down squirrels and local wildlife? I mean they do live here, and we built a city on top of their home. Didn't mean they went away. Add in the 100s of thousands of people that likely use 75 to commute throughout Plano or live here. It's inevitable? More cars + more animals = more dead. No one's out there like hold on I gotta hit someone's housecat with a vehicle real quick.

Yes, people absolutely do it intentionally. Same fuckers that drive 50+ in neighborhoods in their lifted F150s with Punisher and Thin Blue Line stickers.

I had a suicidal squirrel run back at my tire after successfully crossing the street while I waited patiently for him. There’s just not much to be done sometimes.

Report where they are on the fix it Plano app.
They never take longer than a work day and I report often.
