Drove up to Malaney in the Sunshine coast hinterland today. Used Google maps to plot the course which was properly a mistake as it sent us up a dirt road that turned out to be a no through road.
Anyhow, going round a bend and there is a snake across the road. No way to brake or avoid so I attempted to drive over the snake, then braked, got out and checked the snake. As I hoped the wheels missed the animal and she had realized that being on the road was not good idea and was busy getting off it.
I have tentatively ID ed the snake as a Golden Crowned snake Cacophis squamulosus, she wasn't that keen on sticking around .
No pics so it may not have happened.
