along the same lines..many people are killed or injured each year in auto accidents when they swerve to avoid deer in the road, especialy when one jumps out in front of your car at night......the best advice is don't slam on the brakes, don't swerve..just keep going right at the deer...

Hey, hit the brakes. Don't lock 'em up, but you can at least slow down to minimize the impact. But swerving is a suckers move. Chances are good that you'll still get hit, and swerving can point you at a tree, or something more solid than a deer.
