You would think they would run away from a car not right into the side of it.I have deer whistles on my other car but not this one.
I drove to my Fathers house a couple of miles away and called the Sherriff. They did not send anyone out because the car had been moved. I hope this does not cause me issues with the insurance company since there is no police report. I didn't have a cell phone on me so I had to drive away to call. Anyone been through this before where you left the scene without calling cops? I am just sick I just got this car in August. Caved the whole door in it won't even stay shut I have to lock it.
I already filed a claim online. Insurance Company is ALL STATE
Ahh, Tod, my friend, this is what we get for living in the great state of Indiana. I live south of you and dodge deer constantly.
For the record, I used to try and hunt the critters. Seems I rarely saw a deer during deer season. Admit, almost got a few with the truck on our way to our hunting sites, LOL!! Of course now, the state has raised the cost of the license to hunt and they are preparing to shorten both the firearms and muzzleloading gun seasons, go figure.
