Object: deer kill collision - no car damage
Can someone help explain this one? I hit and killed a deer at about
40-50mph. I was expecting major damage when I got out of the car.
Couldn't find any damage. The mechanic couldn't find anything. One
dead deer on the side of the road, and all I had to do was remove a
bunch of hair from the cracks around the right headlight. No paint,
dent, nor alignment damage. I feel I got really lucky.

Actually, someone was around in the area and glad to take the deer for
food. I let him take it.

It was a Subaru Outback (my mom's). Perhaps I just hit the deer on
the right side of the car in the head. It happened so quickly. I
feel lucky, because other people I know that hit and killed a deer had
lots of car damage.
I was in a prior fender bender accident that seemed less dramatic, but
had thousands of dollars worth of damage to the car. I had every
reason to believe the same after I hit the car.

Pretty close to a totally elastic collision, No?

No matter what age the deer happened to be, it is certain that it's not
ever going to be an older deer.

Tim It was a glancing blow. Deer killed because it was hit between the
eyes that drove bone fragments into the front of its brain. Don't hit a
moose,for I've a feeling you would have very bad luck. What would you
charge to run over my mother-in law?? Bert
