This really makes me mad

Ok, let me set the scene. My fiancé' and I had just gone out for some dinner and we decided to go to the local pet shop and pick up some frozen mice for Monty, our Ball Python (dinner for him ) So anyway, we are on our way home and there is a snapping turtle in the median. I didn't see the little guy but Lisa did and she screams "turn around, there is a turtle stuck in the median." So, of coarse, I did.



Well, I parked the car in a turn lane and kicked the hazard lights on. I ran over to the turtle that is now in the middle of one of the lanes. The guy had his head all the way up in the air with this look of horror and confusion on his little face. I went out in to the road to grab him and a car comes barreling down the road at the turtle and me. I moved out of the way and the guy drove over turtle without even slowing down. Fortunately, the turtle passed between both wheels unharmed. So I called Lisa over and she ran in to the traffic, flagging people out of the lane with horns honking and fingers flying, she grabbed the little guy and took him to the side of the road.



We then went over to the car and I looked in the rearview mirror to see the turtle on his way across the street in the other direction. Hmmm.... So out we come again to the rescue. Only this time, some jerk hit the turtle on our way out to him. Fortunately, he was only grazed and just had a little cut on his stomach. So we helped him to the other side of the road, well away from the road this time.
