I know your not a child LOD. You can have those deer signs every 1/4 mile on the road but it doesn't protect you. As a victim just some months ago, I could attest to that. I'm definetly aware of my surroundings because you have to be; being with bad drivers and animals. Despite my comment, I like animals not all but most. It's just that these deer can wreck your car and in some cases even kill you. You can only slow down so much. You can be doing 30-35 on a rural road and still not react in time when Bambi darts onto the road. Having heard many deer encounters from others and having my own too, this why I still say they are somewhat stupid but smart in some ways given the extremes what hunters must do to shoot them LOL. I'm not a hunter by the way.

this time around invest in some deer whistles.

Sorry to hear about your accident.

After my neighbor in Chicago got into a head on with a buck, I put these on my wife's car.

My car is finished.. It looks very nice as the body shop did a fantastic job.

Total repair cost ended up being $9,700. WOW.

I am pleased because they replaced the left front headlight which was not damaged, but did have moisture in it and looked bad.

A little extra bonus. Now watch out for Rudolph and Santa.

I too had an accident two weeks ago, it was hit and run but I got the plates tho. Anyways, whats up with people smashing their lexs lately?

About that deer.... did you take him with you ? I'd probably eat that bastard for what he've caused...

Those things don't work. You'll get better results from playing your radio loudly (with base) or have a deep sounding exhaust...a study was done on them, seriously.

There was a deer that stood in my way out of my driveway. I kept moving foward slowly and it kept looking at me. It wouldn't move out of my way until i honked the horn.

Nope, did not get the deer. I went back and took pictures of it the next morning. I wish I would have put it in the back of my truck and made some sausage out of it!
