I've been told by law-enforcement that you should drive to a safe area if you can, or at least pull all the way off the road, not just onto the shoulder.

I mean, you're not going cross-country with the 5" of ground clearance offered by a Ford Focus, but the car already had "significant disabling damage" so no harm in pulling into the brush.

If they actually could pull over more, right? A white tail deer can wreck your car if you hit it and an adult male black bear is on average more than twice as heavy.
