    Hmm…deer was out early, usually they come out at night. i was hit by deer twice, separate incidents, both in the Molino area, always at night. Always when they try to cross the road, wham, right into the side of the truck. a headon when they come thru the windshield is the one you wanna try and dodge, definitely.
    hope the driver is okay, or makes a speedy recovery.

    @ Troubled I know someone who hit a deer was in a coma for two weeks and had a totaled vehicle. So it’s not always best to get them.

    I have been there with deer, cheaper to hit them then dodge them. I hope everyone OK.
