Around 11:45 today i was driving into work on Rte 33 West in Monroe. A car was in the right lane doing 70 and I was at 65. On the other side of the road was a trooper coming around a bend, the guy in the right lane hit his brake and i just took my foot off the gas(it's a 55) As the trooper passed I looked in my sideview to see if he was turning around. As soon as I looked up WHOA! medium sized deer, dead center. I never even hit my brake. I slammed him/her going about 55-60. That deer flew approx 10 feet in the air and at least 30 feet before it hit the ground, it then spun over 4 or 5 times.
What was I gonna do, i just kept driving to work and checked the damage in the parking lot. Hood and bumper is shot, my wheel alignment or balance is off and my blinkers click at a high rate of speed.
Luckily I have 150.00 deductible on my Comprehensive. This is the 2nd time in 2 years.

are you sure it's dead because if you put it in the back seat it might wake up during Come on Eileen

Well you probably missed out on some nice venison by not going back. I bet the meat was nice and tenderized by collision. Nothn better than feeding the old family via the v-8 guage. Clean out the freezer ma!
