I feel a rant coming on.

I will refrain. *:)
A deer taught me a real good lesson about braking and
maneuverability while towing.
Damn straight. *Around here, that's a real problem in the mornings and

Also renmember that when you see a deer crossing the road, there are
usually a
few more behind them that you haven't seen yet.

Hitting a steer running across the road is a lot worse.

Hitting a deer could total a car and kill occupants. What could be worse
than that?
Go learn to tie a bowline behind your back. That'll be some real useful
nautical knowledge for you to have.

The average deer around here weighs a couple hundred pounds. The average
steer weighs about 1200 pounds.

I hit a deer a few years ago. Did significant damage to the car. When I
was in college, a dorm mate hit a steer. It put him in the hospital for
five months and subjected him to years of reconstructive surgery.
