I'm sad-I hit a deer tonight.

I was driving home from work and passing by a large field, and a young deer 🦌 literally jumped right into my car, almost like it was trying to commit suicide. My car swerved and I did a uturn and tried to go back to see if it was in the road, but I couldn't find it and there was a lot of traffic coming. I hope it was able to make it across the road and that it wasn't hurt too bad. This was the second time I have hit a deer in almost the exact same spot. There are no lights on that road and the deer move very fast across the road.

It happens. It's crazy how they will run away at the noise of a branch snapping, but run straight into a car's path. Very stupid animals and there's nothing you can do aside from driving slower

@deadgerbil yeah, I sure wish they would put some lights on the road too. The speed limit is 45 but these deer just fly out of nowhere.

@deadgerbil bogan/redneck drivers think they are too entitled to drive slower and use situational awareness...
