I had came back to visit family in Iowa in a rental 09 Kia spectra...car has around 1000 miles on it. Well anyhow I was on the way to visit relatives out of town and ended up hitting a deer with the rental car. Messed up the front passenger fender, headlight, door, and mirror. As some of you may know I was just recently in a accident where I rear-ended someone in my grand prix. This is a very hard time for me and dealing with insurance companies is becoming more and more of a pain.

did you get the extra insurance on the rental car?

No, but I believe it should only be 250 for hitting a deer. I was driving 5mph under speed limit and had brights on and the deer still happened to come outta ditch and make me hit it...it was pretty much unavoidable.

dang... you might have crappy month of August for have 2 accidents. Hopefully, September is fresh start and keep eyes out of damn deers and watch the road to avoid rear end someone

wow that has to suck im sorry ben lol

that sucks man... good luck

Well yup I hope September is a good month for me. I suppose gettin the grand prix back w/ new hood will make me feel a bit better. Hopefully im gettin all my accidents while im young and wont ever have ne when im older:)

Lets think september will be a better month!!
And how is the deer?

Dead.

I woud sure hope so. Cant understand why folks cry for Bambi. Anyone ever think of it this way?: Those hunters really werent after the deer in the first place; they had rifles for their own protection while fishing or something. Then Bambi and family decided to cross the highway, caused the "hunters" into the ditch, totaling their truck, and leaving them stranded (Bambi was drawn WAY before cell phones, after all). After being stranded far from home, I'd set up camp in the forest and start looking for retribution my damn self.

Pardon the rant. Glad that you and all others (if there were any others in the Kia) are alright. Good luck settling this with insurance.

Yup with a girl during the accident (were both ok and it was the first thing i checked was to make sure my passenger and I were safe and ok) we were headed out for a movie and we were just talking about deer and suddenly bam, out of no where, big buck hits the side of the car. I couldn't beleive it myself, the luck i've had latley is terrible. Thats 3 accidents this month alone.

at least it wasnt a nice car you hit a deer with when my old truck ran i had custom made grill guard make outa 2x4 tubing welded to the frame and i coudl hit anything with it deer, ricers, or anythign i foudn fitting

Wow, august is a bad month for you. Will that delay you from getting your grand prix or you can pay the rental place for the deer that hit the rental car.

Hope everything go good for the rest of the year.

It didn't delay me getting the car back, I should have it this Friday or Monday or tuesday of next week.

you should have cut off the rack lol or loaded that thing on the roof of that kia and taken it and got somejerkey made out of the deer lol hahaha
