While you are driving, you see an animal standing or walking on the side of the road ahead. you should assume?

You should assume that it would cross the road.

Explanation:

If you see an animal standing or walking on the side of the road, you should always assume that it would try to cross it. Contrary to popular belief, animals do not run away while facing danger, they often feel paralyzed and run in the direction of the presumed danger.

In this case, an animal may get frightened by the approaching car or its lights, in order to escape the danger it would try to run away but nobody knows in what direction first.

You should therefore reduce your speed to a minimum or stop your car till the animal goes away.
