I had a boss in Charleston SC who once ran over a water Moccasin crossing the road on his way home for lunch. As he looked in his rear-view mirror, he never saw the snake and assumed it was under the car waiting for it to stop. He climbed out thru the sunroof and jumped from the hood. He came back to work in his other car and told us about his adventure. One of the locals said. "you northerners don't know nothing. You can't kill a snake running over them crosswise. You got to get them crawling down the road and get them from behind and pop them." Don't believe that to be true but it was hilarious at the time.
