Fess up DUers, who here has hit a deer with their vehicle?

[Jenoch]

76. I hit one deer, two hours after I bought

my car from the auto dealer. My car was not driveable and I was two hours from home. A couple behind me stopped and picked me up and we went to a supper club (rural Wisconsin) so I could call the sheriff. I wanted a police report for the insurance company. My car was towed to a body shop, and th couple drove me 45 minutes to an airport that had a car rental agency. This happened a long time ago. I did not have rental coverage on my auto insurance (I highly recommend it) so I drove a 1968 Buick Electra for two weeks that I got from Rent-A-Wreck.

By the way, NEVER swerve to avoid hitting a deer. My 96 year old aunt died in a roll over when her 74 year old daughter swerved to attempt to miss the deer.

If you are going to hit a moose, do anything you can to avoid it. A Minnesota couple survived hitting a moose because they were driving a small convertible. They drove underneath it.

My dad's friend once hit a horse with his mini-van. The horse rqn onto the road and ran right into the side of the van. The horse died and the funny thing was, nobody claimed ownership of the horse.
