Originally posted by 49AllTheTime:only about 45 miles per hour on a back road. in iowa during the fall time you get used to slowing down your speed out in the country cuz you know the damn deer are out there just waiting to run across the road. now the darn cow got loose somehow from his pasture and i just remember seeing this damn black shape come up out of the ditch so when the driver with aldon was going 70 or so you can not do much when they run across the road. They just stand there in the road sometimes, thus, the deer in the headlight expression( good iowa knowledge for you guys )

Originally posted by NCommand:does not matter the speed when a deer is involved. when they come up upon you and you swerve, you can roll over in a second. . i am not s**tting you guys. i work at a radio and tv station out in the country and there are four deer standing across the road right now just looking around getting ready to make a dash across the road. they are bad at this time of the year.. just bad luck as NC said
Seriously! Interesting they didn't cite the speed...can see a couple young guys driving up the desolate, windy hills to Aldon's house balls-out around mid-night on Friday. That's just speculation of course; bummer the guy has a broken back! And thank God Aldon is alright. But yeah...the dude just needs to stay home and play Madden at this point; he's got some bad, BAD luck! Avoid that Sophomore jinx.

True! It generally takes a weird angle or a lot of force to break a back BUT if the ditch they drove down in was steep, speed may not have been an issue; you never know how you're going to react in a situation like that (dodge or run over) are you're only two options!
