My wife has hit two deer. One totaling the vehicle and the other a small ding that I fixed with a new headlight bezel. The serious one was just North of our home. It ran out, she tried to evade which is a serious mistake.Between the attempt to evade and the point of impact, it spun the vehicle around in the road, putting her in the ditch on the opposite side of the road, facing the opposite direction she was traveling. She called me crying while I was at work. Told the boss see-ya when I get back and bailed. Thankfully no LEO in my travel path. She was uninjured, just distraught more over hitting the deer and watching it on the side of the road struggling. During my trip, two guys showed up in their pickup, saw the deer and my wife in the ditch. Jumped out, cut the throat of the deer, loaded it up and left without even checking on my wife. I saw the blood spot when arriving. She was more traumatized by watching those guys than from the actual wreck. I should be the poster child of the insurance companies considering the number of deer that I've prevented from causing automobile accidents, but that's another story.</blockquote>
