Yeah the guy that was with me and myself are ok.. a little whip lash but nothing major.. Some guy came up to us and pulled the deer off to the side of the road..
The air conditioning condenser, the radiator, the front bumper, the grill (that thing with the "H" on it), the headlights, the hood, both fenders, the trunk, the driver's side door, it's all gone... and that's all I can see cuz I can only lift the hood about 6 inches up.. any idea on how much that's gonna cost? Good thing for insurance!!

i hit a curb at 35 in a a drift, and i did 6100 worth of damage, broke everything on the front end( drivers side) . the only thing insurance is good for , is fixing our cars.

Umm... What happened to the deer? I'm guessing it died, but what did you guys do with the corpse? And was it severed or mutated enough to deem 'disgusting'?

I hit a deer @75 before at night in January 2k2. Avoid highways at night w/deer on them. If you can't drive SLOW, don't give a **** how open it is. The more open the freeway the more deer.

My damages came to $8,000 but the repair was amazing. When I got my car back it still had deer hairs in the engine bay. lol

At any rate, it's huntin season... well, actually... it's not. It's about to be over I think.

If you see a deer, whatever you do, don't hit the brakes if you can't avoid it. You'll just make it worse.

Yeah, just increase speed so you have a better chance of killing it.
