or: Reasons to buy a Hummer.
As there are no deer remains in the photo, I assume that it got up and walked away before you took your photo?

Uh no, that photo was taken after the van was towed to the garage. The deer did not make it. :P |

Have you not seen Bambi? And you still don't anthropomorphosize?

I hit a deer in my Volkswagen Rabbit going about 60 mph, but the deer didn't hit my windshield -- it went right over the top of the car! I saw it hit the road in my rearview mirror. The damage to the front of the car was about the same as in your post, though.

I would not have joked about the Hummer if I had known that there had been a fatality... A plea to PETA: please do not hunt me down.
I am pleased that you got to test your airbags and the "deformation" feature of the front of your car without any further injury, however.

So this lady is driving down the road and hits a rabbit and freaks out.
She stops and runs over to the rabbit and is crying over it when another lady pulls up to see what is going on. The first lady explains what happend.
The second lady tells her she is an Avon sales woman and may be able to help, she heads off to her trunk and comes back with a bottle of liquid. She shakes it up and pours it all over the rabbit.
After about a minute the rabbit starts twitching, then stands up, waves at the women and hops off stopping every couple hops and waving.
The woman is amazed and asks what the tonic was. The Avon woman shows her the bottle's label "Reviving Hair Solution, With Permanent Wave"
ha ha get it "hair" "hare" ha ha
ok so it was lame, sue me. ;)

You're lucky....
The mini-van has a very sloped profile. I've seen trucks that have hit deers and been totalled. Just be happy it wasn't a moose. |

| That's familiar. My mom and I hit and elk going a little slower than that (60 mph=96kph, I believe). You're also lucky that a hoof didn't puncture the windshield. |

noBODY...guess in this case it relates to a deer body? Darn things are always running into the road...you would think they would know better. Oh wait, that's an attribute (know better) applied to humans.

| My husband managed to hit a deer, a fox and a badger all in the same week! Unfortunately none survived and neither did the car. Thankfully my husband did! He felt so guilty about decimating the local wildlife he gave a donation to the Countryside Preservation Society - anonymously! |

You never know what can happen. This AM just outside of Montreal QC. A man died after hitting a stray dog on the highway. The dog did not make it either. They cleaned up the scene nicely before rush our this AM and left the dog on the side of the road . . . everyone was slowing down . . . this is a sick society!
Happy Friday the 13th . . .

Just a complete aside here (aside from me telling you about the time that I ran over an already-dead deer), I recently saw an accident in the new forest where a lorry had hit and killed a pony. This was in the morning and the corpse was lying in the road. In the evening when we passed in the opposite direction, we saw that the the pony's corpse had been moved to the ditch adjacent to the road and a 'Police Aware' sticker had been stuck on it.

Around these parts, you better watch out for the Deer driving the vehicle and hitting you!
Sorry for bringing up my old picture, but what a perfect thread to do so in..

Jeff Spicoli: [driving and stoned] People on 'ludes should not drive.
Jefferson's Brother: My brother's gonna kill us! He's gonna kill us! He's gonna kill you and he's gonna kill me, he's gonna kill us!
Jeff Spicoli: Hey man, just be glad I had fast reflexes!
Jefferson's Brother: My brother's gonna shit!
Jeff Spicoli: Make up your mind, dude, is he gonna shit or is he gonna kill us?
Jefferson's Brother: First he's gonna shit, then he's gonna kill us! |
