To Get To the Other Side

Crashed my car as I swerved to miss a chicken crossing the road.
She stopped and stared as I got out to inspect the damage.
“Why were you crossing the road?” I yelled.
She turned away and walked off into the Winter night.
Stupid riddle.

I'm still laughing at this one. Well done, Tate. Sorry about your car.
