Sauðfé
What do I do?
Slow down and watch both verges. A lamb on one side will bolt to its mother on the other — cover the brake until you're past.
From spring to the September round-up (réttir), sheep graze unfenced all over Iceland and treat the warm tarmac as furniture. Hit one and you're liable — call the farmer or 112.
