cats don't dart under moving vehicles. i reckon the statement is partially bullshit

cats, the animal most notorious for being contrary and doing dangerous things often enough that they were given the mythos of having "nine lives", never dart under quiet electric moving vehicles?

I've had several times a cat has run out in the road in front of my car, and would have gone under if I hadn't stopped quickly. Happily I've not hit one, few close calls though.

we had one do it once. broke the poor baby's hips. survived tho
