    I was actually driving back to Phoenix from work in Cave Creek.

    It was definitely a squirrel, because as soon as it made it across the road it just stood there, mocking me. I've never held offense against an animal before, but if he darts in front of me again, I'm not hitting my brakes.

    For eh, safety's sake.

    Being disc brakes, check for a frozen/stuck caliper. If stuck closed, it will pull to the side while in motion and moreso when the brakes are applied.
