Yes! Though it is more scary on my motorcycle.
I have a dead skunk rotting away on one of my climbs on my way home. So I'm breathing hard and only going 5 mph as I go by. I never saw the skunk but I know it's there. Now that I think about it I almost ran over a skunk myself, twice, back in Jan. or Feb. riding my bicycle. I'm glad I didn't.
