Finished work at 11pm, on my way home doing 50mph, 2 deer ran in front of me. Put the ancors out, back end slid out, hit a wall with the back end, fliped the car over and traveled about 50 feet on the side of the car. Just got out of hospital with a broken thumb, 9 stiches in my head 6 in my arm and wiplash. I didnt even hit the daym deer

The cars fooked, - boot and rear bumpers pushed in, both windows on the drivers side have gone through, roofs crumpled, front bumpers hanging off and all down the drivers side is scraped and crumpled. Somehow I even managed to take the oil sump clean off so i have to go tow it home tomorrow.

Not a very good 2006 up to now!

I`ll get pics up when it gets light tomorrow.

I cant see there being a problem with something deer sized! would be doing a fair bit of damage if he hit it anyway.

Do you really know what happens when you hit a big deer? If its quite tall it will come through your widscreen. So your idea is a bit on the shit side.

Or you need to go in to the setup and change the date!
