   A long time ago my son was coming home from a date late one night. He said all of a sudden something ran into the driver side door while he was driving down the road. He got out, couldn’t figure our what it was and came on home. We took another look and there was hair, blood and feces consistent with a deer. Not only do they run across in front of you but they will run into your car as well. No chance to avoid those kind of accidents. Thank goodness he was ok and I am happy that this guy was not hurt. We ain’t seen nothing yet – wait until hunting season starts. Take care and be safe and keep your eyes open.

   Lady is right. In many areas there are too many does. In a properly managed area, farm, hunting camp, FWC will assist in adjusting with doe tage to help the buck/doe ratio. With most of these deer/vehicle collisions, it is does looking outside their ‘area’ to find food.

   I could be wrong, but I aint…

   We have so manr deer in our area, I think Fish & Wildlife should look at a longer deer season to get rid of these terrible hungry creatures that is costing a lot of money to fix damaged vehicles and taking lives on the road. That is the reason for so many one vehicle accidents where ther have fatalities that are unexplained. I for one feel we should petition this to the State and I will gladly start it if I have some more backers. This accident could have been a fatality if that child had been in there. Thank God it wasn’t. THIS time but another is just around the corner

   I am so glad you are okay, been there and it has happen to me 3 times in my life. I hope your aches and pain goes away quickly.

   Thanks to all yall that wished me well. I had dropped my 20 month old son off not five mins before the wreck, so as bad as it looked I still look at it as wonderfully lucky. P.s. I will start back deer hunting. I remember what she looked like……..

   Aim where they are at when you see them and they will most likely be gone when you get there.

    I don’t know how many have encountered a deer in this situation, but I have. They will run in front of you at the last second, leaving you no time to react. I hit one and crunched the whole front of my Nissan truck. If she had jumped, she would have come through the windshield into me. these situations are so unpredictable, but I’ll bet the deer came out of that cornfield and darted in front of Mr. Smith. He is very fortunate to have come away with only minor injuries.

    Glad hes not badly hurt.

    My dad taught me to steer straight and brake firmly, but dont lock em up. Its saved me from several accidents.

    So was the attempt to avoid the deer impact worse that the roll over? It appears to that this is the case. Advice: slow and prepare to stop and do not attempt to take evasive action at higher speeds is the lesson here.
