I just hit a deer.

OMG.?

I was on my way to pick up Hannah at her gym class and the darn thing ran right out in front of me. ?I slammed on brakes and swerved but I still hit her. ?:( ?Poor deer and poor new car. ?:(?

Re: I just hit a deer.

  • How bad was it?  Poor deer and poor car.  And poor your nerves.
  • OMG. Steph, that definitely sux!!!  How bad is your car??  Ry can fix it for you if you want him too, afterall, that's what he does. 
     

  • really?!!! ?It's not too bad- the front driver's side is smashed a bit and the driver's side door is dented in. ?All in all not TOO bad. ?Just stinks because it's brand new!!! ?you can see it tomorrow! ?lol
  • Oh no!  I'm glad that you're okay.
  • I am glad that you are ok!! I am so sorry about the car!! I know SO many people who have accidently hit deer, especially this time of year!
  • Aw man that sucks...glad you are okay though! 
  • awh Steph that sucks, but I'm glad you're ok.  Sorry about the car.  Growing up on a secluded road I ALWAYS feared for this to happen to me.  They are all over Tallahassee.  Brad hit an animal on our way back from the Ham Sat night and he felt so guilty.   No major damage though thankfully and my car isn't new.

    But how awesome is Casie to offer up Ry's services - I'm sure he'd be MUCH better and more reasonable than taking it somewhere else!!!!

     

  • I've hit one before. It's scary! I'm glad you are ok. Sorry about the car!!!

  • Oh my!  I'm so glad you're okay!  It really does suck that your car is banged up, but glad it's not too bad.
  • This is always my greatest fear at night this time of year.  I am glad you are ok.  Hopefully the car will be fixed and good as new in no time!!

    oh, the poor deer.  I don't think I'll ever get that image out of my head.  When I pulled over I looked back and saw her laying in the road moving around but she died right after that.  :(  A guy stopped to check on me and he pulled her out of the road.  I felt horrible but I did everything I could short of running off of a cliff to avoid hitting her. 

  • Well, look at it this way.  You know the deer didn't run off into the woods and is suffering.  I know its kind of morbid to say that.  And I know its really hard to avoid them sometimes.  I wonder how I manage to miss them everyday that I leave work and drive thru Oak Mountain State Park.  But I can usually see the eyeshine in time.  Sometimes they just dart outta the woods without warning and there's just nothing you can do. 

    Glad you're ok tho and don't have too much damage to your car and that your daughter wasn't there.

  • Scary. Sorry about your car but at least you're ok. I can't tell you how many times I almost hit a deer when I was in Auburn. There was this one spot close to campus where they always seemed to dart out.

  • Oh no. That's one of my biggest fears..... that I will hit a deer and my airbag pops out...
    Last Christmas Eve, DH and I saw a car that had a deer strapped on top of it. We joked around and said maybe they hit it and didn't want to waste it... like they were going to eat it.
