Aussie drivers like to think they’d keep their cool if a kangaroo jumped out in front of them, but new research from Suncorp Insurer AAMI suggests many would do the opposite.   More than 40 per cent of Australian drivers have hit an animal, and when it comes to how they'd respond in the moment, one in five admit they would swerve to avoid one.   AAMI Motor Claims Manager Leah James said instinct can be a driver’s worst enemy when wildlife unexpectedly appears on the road. "AAMI is urging drivers to slow down, stay alert, and keep a close lookout for wildlife, particularly in signed areas.”   Find out where the top hotspots are in your state: https://lnkd.in/gUZeazUM #AAMI #AnimalCollision #SafeDriving
