Ginger @gingerw -- I hate deer encounters too 🙂 Two deer strikes is enough for me 🙂 One late evening encounter with an old 85 Chevy where the deer only broke the left front headlight and damaged the trim on the headlight but then got up off the road and ran away from a 35 mph collision. The second was with a month old 2013 Ford CMax when I hit a deer just after crossing over the bridge at the south entrance to town and doing a whopping 20 mph. Damaged didn't look that bad but was over $3,000... and the deer turned and looked at me and ran away.

Hi John I had a deer incident but it was when I was driving a school bus in between jobs. My bus was empty thank goodness . I was coming up a small grade when this deer hit the grill ruined the front end but not the deer he just bounced of crossed the road and went into the woods, but I had to call and have them toe me in the bus had to have a all new radiator and grilll put on That was the end of my driving a bus .
