Anti-lock brakes work!

This morning, around 5:15am, when my mom was going to the gym, she saw some motion out of the corner of her eye...

So she slowed down some, then realized it was a DOG! She slammed on her brakes hard enough that the anti-lock feature had to go to work.

The dog was a black lab wandering around loose! He'd have left a mark in the bumper for certain... Fortunately for both parties that: 1) mom was alert enough to notice some motion, 2) brakes are in good working order, 3) dog didn't get hit.

I really wish people would take better care of their pets. The dog's life/health depends on it! Next time he's out the driver may be chatting on a cell phone and not paying any attention at all.
