I was considerably tired driving home from work this morning and the splattering noise was pretty loud under my relatively heavy Subaru SVX.

The answer might depend upon your core philosophy! The duck was a life form and should be treasured as such. However most admit that ducks like other creatures are "lower life forms" and don't rate the same as human life.
There will be more ducks, one loss is sad but probably not tragic. Consider how many animals are prey (food) for others: do we morn their deaths or is it part of the food chain?
Some, like PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animal) and some of the SPCAs (Societies for the Preventation of Cruelty of Animals) might criticize you and accuse you of reckless driving, especially if you didn't stop to "provide care."
I think that it is sad that a duck died in a driving accident, but that after a little sorrow you can move on with your life.
I hope this helps.

I'd feel bad for all of 10 seconds. Ducks belong in or near water, ducks do not belong on the road. He should have looked both ways before crossing the road. Besides, they'll make more ducks. I'd do a quick check, though, to make sure nothing under your SVX got damaged.

Feeling bad about this would be a normal reaction. I would try to assess "fault" in this. Did the duck jump out in front of you so quickly you had no time to react? If so, I would feel only a little bad about it. If you saw it coming and thought "hmmm if I only had a second cup of coffee, I could have enough energy to hit this brake" then I would feel pretty bad.

The worst provider: Any cellular telephone business enterprise Any internet provider Any employer that makes use of a decision centre exterior the united kingdom maximum banks, somewhat those which use Asian call centres Any government branch (such by way of fact the domicile workplace, DWP, Jobcentre Plus etc., apart from the DVLA) Any great application employer (which incorporate British gas) the appropriate provider? Small companies who fee their shoppers DVLA - the only government branch which seems to be in any respect effective and efficient

If a duck can't learn to duck at the right time you shouldnt feel bad. Were there any baby ducks around?

Don't ducks belong flying in the air? What was it doing on the stupid street. I say serves the communist bastard right for not abiding by the rules of the road.

since i sense that you are being a bit facetious and maybe even condesending in your attitude. my response to this is why dont you jump out in front of me and let me squash your guts all over the highway. then i can ask the same redundant question about your sorry a**!you obviously dont have a conscience or you wouldnt be asking such a question. poor duck, he probably deserved to live more than you do????????????????????

You should always ask us before feeling anything. Did you ask why did the duck cross the road?

You are really missing out.
