Replying to Sucidal deer

ok me and my friend were on our way back from sugarloaf on sunday and we were stuck behind a line of cars. all the cars were pretty close to each other. all of a sudden a fucking deer sprints out of the woods and tries to make it in between the two cars right in front of us that are only about 20 ft apart going 50mph. it almost made it across, but its ass got clipped by the bumper of the minivan and it was sent spinning into the breakdown lane. it was still alive and kicking, it just had two busted back legs. the van only had a broken headlight. we didnt stick around to watch the guy put the deer out of its misery.

-why do deer have a fascination with jumping in front of cars?
