Answer 1

Not a deer but a bull moose. Pouring rain after dark I almost rearended a moose running the same direction I was traveling. No oncoming traffic, I swerved into the other lane to miss him. tried to get back in my lane and spun 360 plus degrees around, and came to a stop across the road. Moose ran right into my driver door and fender. 87 Chevy step side 4" suspesnion lift so his face was right at my level. About crapped myself. he fell over got up staggered around for a minute and ran off. demolished my fender and door, had what I belive were teeth marks in the paint on the door.

Answer 2

Yeah my wife is pretty good at it. She has had a deer run into the car once a year for the past three years. I have to knock on wood a moment. I am hoping it doesn't happen this year.

Answer 3

yes i was helping a friend move out of my house into her own place and i lived out in the country,we were going down this dirt road and out of nowhere this deer ran right into the side of the truck! we werent going fast but it sure scared us we went back later to try and track it but couldnt find it so i guess he might have lived.that kind of thing happens quite a bit here in michigan.good luck.at least it wasnt a bear like one of my friends where i worked hit!
