Yeah, I used to think 'what's wrong with people who hit deer' as I drove in rural areas for decades and never came close, then in one stretch I hit something like one a year for 4 years
Seemed to be a combination of the area I was in, a lot of time driving at dusk, and pure luck
One deer hit the side of my truck so hard I had to get the tire dismounted and cleaned as deer hair in the bead was giving me a slow leak
