Geico is my insurance, and so far, since the deer hit us they are claiming it as comprehensive (which I feel is correct).
I hope given it was not our fault etc that the rates dont go up.
I am also pleased I am getting zero error messages on IDrive.
I did see some damage to the rear quarter panel upon further inspection today (which is difficult, BTW, I really just want to drop it off and get it fixed).
Cannot open either door on the drivers side.

Check out this deer I saw coming back from the Exotics Rally today. Maybe this is your deer?

It shouldn't but first they have to go into arbitration with the deer's insurance company.
seriously glad your family is okay.. thats the most important for sure~~!!!!!
deer are being seen around my house lately, walking down the street near me like its okay...
but poor baby.. i hate when my husband goes hunting.. ( which is next week) i secretly pray he doesnt get a deer. i just cant help it, im an animal lover and i could never kill a deer, they are too cute.. imo

Got the car into the body shop and Geico finished the estimate.
It will take 6 days to:
Replace both driver side doors and mirror and fix a dent in the rear quarter right behind the rear door.
How much? $4340.
My deductible? $100.
Whew.

Here's one. This deer gets stuck in the grill of a car and it's still alive. The couple who hit the deer drove to the police station to get help for the deer. The cops freed the deer and took it to a farm to release it. Just as they are letting it go, some yahoo comes along and takes a shot at it, firing his gun right over the heads of the cops.
