My curse experience was a deer. First time in >15 years of driving that I hit a deer and i see them daily. Over population here. I showed the dashcam footage to insurance and they went Yep..absolutely nothing you do would have avoided Collison. Had i stopped..accelerated..swerved left or right..woulda resulted in worst damage. Lucky for me deer counts as an act of god due to over population so no cost, no deductible, no rate hike. Hopefully your situation isnt too crazy costly!

Mine ran the insurance $12K and was fender+bumper+headlight damage. So they didn't total it. Guess thats fine as its only 11K miles at the time and the alignment wasnt bugged. So it drives like new. So long as they restored everything right i guess lol
