A deer ran into the side of my Baja this morning. I came around a bend and saw it and another one on the side of the road. I wasn't going very fast and when I saw them panic I stopped, but one headed right for me and literally ran right into the front fender and then tried to jump over the hood and landed right on it. I think it kicked the side mirror as it flopped around. It broke the glass and knocked it loose and then it took out the bug shield as it tried to get off. There is a dent in the fender and the hood.
We always tell our visitors "when you get close to the house, watch out for deer". I was about 1-2 miles from the house. We always see them and are very cautious, but what can you do when the deer runs into you? If I would have kept moving it probably would have missed me.
Damn deer. For those that might remember this DVE skit, I need to get a Joe Pesci deer whistle.
