they always say never to swerve......it like a reflex though, isn't it? one time i swerved and somehow kept control and just missed the thing standing there looking at me like i was an alien, and another time i didn't even see an 8 point till it was too late......those were both in my old 94z28, i hit him doing 70 sometime before 3am, his *** got caught on my front right fender/light and he slammed his head into my winshield.....then he flew 30 yards onto the opposite side of the road.......a 6 inch piece of his rack got stuck in the middle of my winshield...i wish i had pics.....i was right by work so i drove up and told them i wasn't gonna make it, called the cops, and went back to drag the deer farther off to the side...the cop met me there and said "wow, you tattoed that sucker.....last week i put 6 rounds into one after somebody hit it" i said yeah, he was dead before he hit the ground......i was still all nervous moving it though, i had visions of it coming alive like in tommy boy or something! the part that sucks is that i was going to put the car into storage THAT NIGHT for the winter....i still did, and got it fixed in the spring......the insurance even payed me for the day i missed work(and some chiro work on my back)! sorry for the hijack, i just needed an excuse to share the story! good luck with the insurance and the car, man!
