Kamikaze deer haunts rural roads.
My daughter decided to come home after her live broadcast from football tailgating. She was driving the speed limit and watching the road in front of her. A 3-point buck charged across lanes of traffic and rammed her door, shattering the window inches from her face. If he’d been bigger, he’d have been in her lap. It shook her up. She called and all I heard was sobbing. It took a few moments, before I figured out what had happened.
She’s unhurt, but Bambi is dead. As for her car, the driver’s window and door are trashed. The mirror is hanging by a cord and even the back door has some damage. It’ll cost $3,000 to fix it. 5 minutes earlier … 5 minutes later, it wouldn’t have happened.
Today, she’s going through the same realization we all had after getting the bill from our first accident. “$500 Deductible? You mean I have to pay part of this!” Growing up sucks.
