Don't feel bad...
People don't hit deers on purpose. Unlessthey have a pick up truckwith reinforced front end and you need some venison meat.

I have a collision car in the shop right now... Hit by a deer, $9000 in damage!![&:][8D]POS Mazda3.

There's a local shop here that has cars at SEMA every year and has won several awards. He said he'd put stripes on my car and clear over them for $1500. But I'm a 'vert, so there's less sheetmetal to paint than you guys...

We're talking 40mph at bestin my case.
Those deers in FL are small compare to up North[8D]. It would have been a total loss then.

Every time I'm in the Keys they make us slow down to something ridiculous, like 15 or 20 mph, to avoid hitting those little Key Deer. And I've never even seen any of them!
They should just let us clip on plastic snow plows to our front ends and let us go 70!
