4 deer ran out in front of me tonight when I was going about 50 mph on a country road. I slammed on the brakes and clipped the last one. He fell to the ground but got up and ran away. The Celica, believe it or not, was not damaged at all. There were three teenagers walking along side the road right where it happened and the whole incident freaked them out pretty bad as I was within about 30 feet of them when my car came to a complete stop after a very long loud skid. It was harrowing but luckily, all I have to show for it is some deer hair on my bumper.
