Default Had a an accident, damn deer!
Hit a doe early Sunday morning going into work, running 50 mph and she jumps out of the bushes in front of me; funny thing is my airbags didn't deploy. Only damage is front bumper and fog lights. I see a new bumper in the near future.

not a hard enough hit for the airbags. Be glad, could have been worse.

That's amazing it was just that amount of damage. And...what a good excuse for a new bumper!

Not to minimize your accident but for hitting a deer you go off easy. That's a good thing!
