I hit a deer at 75 MPH on the interstate in a Honda Accord. Had a tractor trailer on both sides of me and behind me so I couldn’t really do anything but hit it full speed.
I was worried it was going to roll up the hood but it shot straight up came straight back down and the truck behind me rolled over it.
Ended up with $1400 in damage but that was years ago before fronts of cars got filled with expensive sensors.
I've had that experience, also. Driving to work early, foggy, a deer came flying down the hill just off the road and hit the front corner of my car, it rolled on it's back on the hood, up and over the car, and off the back. I stopped, it got up and trotted off. Now my memory seems mostly to be "did that really happen?"I was driving very early one morning on a dark Florida panhandle backroad, and one flashed in and out of my headlights. It was better than a quadruple espresso to wake me up!
So the other night, a Buck and my car collided and we all lived to tell the tale.
I’ve never an encounter like that with wild life and I hope to not do it again.
Gotta love Rut season.
