You didn't answer the earlier question. You're driving along a road at
less than the speed limit and a dog steps out 2m in front of you.
Inevitably you will hit it. When you got to the dog it was already in
your path.

Would you consider that to be your fault?



This is irrelevant, it is not what was described.


The point is that you know full well that if the dog ran out 2m in front
of you and you ran it down, you would not consider it to be your fault,
but you ducked the question.


As it is you are making assumptions that don't work.
You assume I will be driving too fast to stop, just because you do
doesn't mean everyone does.


So how fast would you have been driving? At what distance would you say
that it's reasonable to be able to stop?


You are required to drive no faster than you can "see".
If you are driving down a wall and you hit someone that steps out of an
opening in that wall it is your fault for driving too fast.
You can play around with your stupid question all you want.
If you want an answer you will have to provide *far* more information.
Post a picture or two, maybe a video.
As it is your question is stupid and is getting the answer it deserves.
