as i was driving away from the location of my car meet around 1030 last night a deer jump in the middle of the road. i tried to swerve as soon as i saw it but i guess we both was going to fast. the deer hit my front end and i saw it flew :'( i feel really bad. just wish i was more careful. car could be fix but deer is no longer here

this is this morning

on the side of the road after it happened

bambi

my front end



sigh ......

 

succcks dude, goodluck and lovely accord =).

 

thanks man. sigh...

 

That's too bad. I'm glad you weren't hurt. Kudos for feeling bad about the deer too. The damage doesn't look that bad, and hopefully the car will be repaired shortly.

Be thankful you're okay. I used to live in NJ and deer was plentiful. I'm glad I never encountered one.

 

Jeeze, that did some serious damage. Like you said, the car can be fixed. And although it sucks the deer died, just be thankful you made it out okay.

 

Good thing it didn't fly through the windshield, hopefully the car gets repaired soon.

 

good thing you arent injured.

and youre attitude about the deer vs the car. WOW. you might be my antithesis

 

^i just don't like living things being hurt especially when it invovles me.

yeah i contacted the insurance and is wiating for them to reply back about the damage. hopefully it can be fix soon. i guess i just have to foot it for a while.

 

i heard i was really lucky because lowered car had a higher tendency to send the deer through the window, but i was lucky. no blood nothing from the deer or anything.

 

dang sorry to hear.

Bambi

 

I agree with you but you cant be hard on yourself. You have to just be thankful that you (and if you had passengers) are ok. I have hit and known people who have hit deer and it sucks (one person i know has Honestly hit 27 now)

 

damn, that deer fucked your car up. Like the others said, at least you weren't hurt and you are lucky you still have both your headlights to avoid other deer

 

Meh. I can send you 500 deer to replace the one you hit, no problem. NJ is overrun with these pests.

Sorry about your car, though.

 

What is with all this sympathy for that stupid deer??? We have a HUGE deer infestation down here and it is one of my #1 worries when driving at night. Nothing is scarier than running up I95 at 80+mph and seeing a whole herd of those stupid things eyeing the road as you approach...

 

Could've been a LOT worse...glad you're OK

 

Since it was fresh, I hope you took some meat home.

 

x2 on not wasting good food.

 

You can always fix a deer, but you cannot replace a car.

 

Yeah deer scare me, one of my two greatest concerns driving at night. The other is not seeing road hazards like rocks that people deliberately place on the road to give people flat tires.

 

Probably because most people don't want to see an animal hurt or suffering.

Nothing wrong with that.

Damn man, good thing you're alright. My friend hit a deer on the freeway, then spun out, got knocked out for a little bit from the impact, had some kind people help him out of his car cuz he was in the middle of the freeway still. Also car was totalled of course. He was driving a '05 Nissan Altima sedan. Good thing there wasn't too many cars on the road, I think it was about 12 midnight. I hope this never happens ever again, but that's wishful thinking. I'm just glad he was ok with just a few cuts and a headache. Glad you came out alright and hope you get your car looking good again!

PEACE!

PEACE!

 

i feel the same way about running over bunny rabbits,

 

Why'd you have to kill it? It was just fawn-ing for your attention.

 

Your lucky that's all that happened and be thankful it was a doe.

I hear that this is why a lot of people with trucks here, have a big ass grill guard. I hear that the noise that is created when you bounce a deer off a grillguard on an F-250 is pretty unforgettable.

 

glad noone was hurt but poor bambi GL

 

How's the venison?

 

Nice Accord! Be thankful that you were ok.

 

LOL.....

Car > Deer

 

thanks guy.

 

I feel your pain.. I hit a deer back in Oct and it did a number to the front of my car.. Got a few new mods out of the deal. I hit a huge buck though, so it did a little bit more damage than your deer.

 

Sorry to see this. Glad you're ok.

 

I love venison.

 

Yeah, I hit a deer with my last car just a few months before I bought my CL. I felt so bad, I saw the deer get launched a bit, then tumble on the ground about 2-3 times, then when I checked out the damage (mostly just bent front end, passenger side headlight off kilter.) the whole front end was covered with deer fur!

Weird thing is the deer got up and ran off... wasn't limping or anything. I still felt pretty lousy, I still dunno if the deer turned out okay, or died from hemorrhaging soon after.

 

Look on the bright side...NOW YOU CAN GET A TL!

 

Accord 1, Dear 0 lol

 

Um, you guys know this is from two months ago, don't you?

To the OP, how is the car now? Fixed or totalled?

 

^I was waiting to see how long it'll take for people to realize
