Not all that likely. Most people who know anything about this stuff stay a
mile away from road kill. Sure enough, someone is going to raise the
one-off story about a friend of a friend who took a road kill - or a Texan
(who are well known for taking armadillo off the shoulder of the road for
family Bar-B-Que), and that's exactly what it is - the one-off story. You
really should believe that it goes on a lot less than you might believe.


Not to mention that hitting a deer can do some serious damage to a
vehicle. Hid I just hit a deer the last thing on my mind would to clean
it and pack the meat to take home.

Then add to that if it happens in California you have to have available
the deer tag warning about Cancer.
