Tape a paper towel to a piece of cardboard, and leave it under there long enough to get a sample. At least with a paper towel, you should get a decent idea of the color.
Any stray dogs in the area?

It was more humor, than anything else...
Edit:
You lady friend prolly wouldn't see the humor at all. She might want to hurt me.

As from the drivers seat, or looking at the front of the car?

That's what I figured, this is why we say passenger and driver side to eliminate any confusion. If it's not atf, then it's probably coolant. Could be a leaky hose, or the water pump itself. The p/s pump and windshield washer fluid reservoir are on that side as well, so and inspection of the fluid on the ground should narrow it down.
