This deer ran into me I didn’t hit him

This six point buck ran right into the side of my Tahoe the other day.

I didn’t see him coming. I was going down the road and all of a sudden bang something hit my car.

I braked and stopped on the side of the road. I did a U-turn and turned the car around to see what happened and there it was a deer was lying in the middle of the road.

I see deer cross in front of me all the time in the early morning and I have deer whistles on the front bumper for added protection but this I couldn’t prevent.

This older guy came out of nowhere in this dark morning and said “I thought you hit my mailbox at first”.

I called for back up…my husband. He said he’ll be right there.

I made sure my lights were on the deer as traffic passed me slowly as everyone wanted to see what happened.

The police showed up and helped us maneuver the deer to the back of my truck.

The neighbor was nice to give us some cardboard to put under the deer.

I didn’t go to work that day and I now have a big dent in the side of my SUV. It wasn’t totaled and it still runs fine but it looks rough.

Now we call that car the deer slayer.
