    Unless you were doing some serious drifting, I’d say the deer hit you! Bummer.

    It always amazes me just how much damage is caused by wildlife impact.
    To crease the front fender to that degree takes a LOT of force.
    Hope you have plenty of venison in the freezer now.

    Biancaneve has finally passed her MoT test and is again road-legal. Now is time to go back one of these days to my usual garage and set the mixture on the "rich" side ... now it's running too lean but it was necessary to keep within the emission rules. Happy ending is almost close and about the time to plan for the events of the autumn - winter season.

    Exactly. The deer switched directions very quickly, going from running away from me to running into the side of me.The time from seeing the deer to stopping to assess the damages was probably less than a minute.

    On a good note, i got the car back from the great folks at Automobile Associates of Canton on Friday. They did a fantastic job and the car looks like new. Automobile Associates and Hagerty were both great to work with.

    Deers are heavier than you think and when they hit you at speed, that's a lot of energy that must be dissipated hence the large dent.
    Just physics in it's most basic.
    Glad you're safe and the car was damaged any more than it was.
