Steer INTO the deer and hit the gas. Do not leave the road for a deer ever. A deer won’t kill you but rolling your car in a ditch or hitting a tree can. I’m serious… I hit the gas if deer are around. They always react so late… whether it’s vision related or stupidity… their late response usually results in then jumping directly into your path or the side of your car. So the more you slow down the more time you give them to execute their poor choices successfully. Maybe I’m nuts but I swear this is how it works. Also loud engines/exhaust DO seem to help.

Giving me flashbacks to yesterday, threaded between two "deer". I had to look up what the hell they were afterwards and I didn't know we had pronghorns here!

Also in terms of insurance claims, hitting the deer is a comp claim and won't be a fault claim and won't increase premium. Dodging the deer and hitting a tree/guardrail will make it a collision claim which will be a collision claim and will have possibility of increasing premium.

Right! If that deer hadn't ran out into the road and alerted the driver, they would have plowed right into that stopped car in front of them.

We can't see the bumper in the video, but I'm certain that it clipped the right rear leg and sent the deer spinning. That was not a controlled leap.

I’ve had this exact thing happen. Only difference was the deer was being chased by a German Shepard which didn’t make it over the hood like the deer. Was terrible and also car had like 200 miles on it.

Here to say I almost hit a dove flying in front of my car at 65 mph today. It responded by barrel rolling out of the way at the last second.

Clearly the deer was attempting insurance fraud. It may still sue you, so save the vid!

Same thing happened to my dad, except he didn't brake in time. A deer jumping might clear a compact car, but it sends them right through the windshield of a pickup. He was lucky because it wrapped around the windshield frame which prevented it from coming straight through completely. It ended up landing in the bed of the truck. I was 10 a cell phones were brand new and my dad didn't know how to use one but some lady stopped and let him borrow hers to call my mom, who answered just as he was giving up so all she heard was my dad handing the phone back to the lady saying "yeah I don't think it's working..." And the lady says "you're going to drive home with it sticking out like that!?" And my mom is screaming "WHAT? WHAT IS STICKING OUT? WHAT HAPPENED??" Since the deer didn't make it through the windshield, about 1/3 of the windshield was curved in pointing at the driver seat (because windshields have that laminate that prevents them from straight shattering) so my dad grabbed his work gloves, broke off the dangling windshield, and finished the drive home from work. Watched that crazy bastard pull up to the house covered in blood, guts, and a half a windshield. First thing he did after getting out of the truck was grabbed a cold beer and drank it like he just made it out of the Sahara, I think we'd all have guessed as much.

I really hope they stopped to make sure it was alright. It could easily have broken a leg. It's terrible to leave it injured and without any help. I remember one time I was driving to my mothers. It was a 6hr drive from my home to hers, if I encountered little to no traffic. So, I set out from my place at the usual time, between 9PM and 10PM. In Northern Ontario, the scenery when driving goes like: 2Lane highways surrounded by trees. 4Lanes to 6L⁰anes means you're coming up to or just leaving 9
