No way, some of those geese are 15+lbs, and at 250kts that is a serious projectile.

Can you imagine being the driver and looking to your right once you got the car stopped?! (if you were still alive/conscious!)

When I lived in Alaska it was fairly common for people to be killed when they hit Moose on the highway.

This is awesome. The only thing that comes to mind is that movie way back when Mischief 3000 with Dado driving that E36 M3. Some Bentley hits a bird and is stuck in it's massive grille and everyone gets some lawllzz at the gas station from it.
