IN: En route to work tonight , I spotted three or four raccoons in the middle of the road ahead of me . I mashed on the brakes and turned as far away as I could but still had n't slowed enough . Two or three of them had darted off to my left but the last was running straight forward along the road away from me and I was literally running it down .

OPTIONS:
- Although raccoons can be annoying , the speaker does n't want to kill one
- None of the above choices .
- There is a local law against running over raccoons with one 's car
- They get a lower insurance rate for avoiding hurting animals

OUT: Although raccoons can be annoying , the speaker does n't want to kill one
