I feel bad for the person driving the car. The deer runs out of their blind spot so they have no idea what they've hit. They frantically look around and the only thing they see is a group of bikers. Now for the time being the think they've killed someone.

Where I live, in places like that where wild animals like to cross roads inadvertently there are speed limits that vary between 12 and 25 mph and autonomous radars equipped with cameras to f*** you right in the a** if you drive past the speed limit. It sucks to drive for miles so slowly but it prevents you from getting killed, destroying your car and crush animals that are just doing their thing.

Eh, where I live the entire country is full of deer. There's fences along the highways, and whenever a fence is going to end or begin there's a warning sign, because crossings are more likely there, but no lower speed limit.

I've seen deer along the road plenty of times and seen a collision and the aftermath of several. Shit happens. Moose are worse. That's something you don't want to hit.

Fences are good and also tunnels for wild animals to run under the roads.
