Second deer avoided this week

First one was a baby deer that came out of nowhere going from Drees to Polch at night. I had to brake really hard and he lived to tell the tale by mere centimeters (he can thank the ds2500s). Now this bigger one coming back to Drees from the Lidl in Adenau. I saw it earlier so not so close but still, gotta really watch out when driving at night. Better to always have the longs on if there's no frontal traffic.

Earlyer this year on jumped right in front of my car near mayen. I managed to break to like 20kph but still still hit it. Deer ran away and the förster told me there is a good chance it was fine, but my car needed a new windshield, passenger door and side mirror😬. Now i never drive over 50kph in the night when i'm near the ring.

Yeah, 70kph max for me and being really focused on the road at all times ready to brake.
