minus-squareschmidtster@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·9 months agoWell shit I’m surprised, that’s a crap ton of damage for a deer.
minus-squareEdibleFriend@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up5·9 months agoThose fucks are like brick walls. I’ve seen them total more then a few cars.
minus-squareFiveMacslinkfedilinkarrow-up2·9 months agoProbably poor placement of the deer jumping at the time of collision. I do know that the damage is typically a lot less from deer.
minus-squareGreenBottles@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up4·9 months agoI’ve seen this type of damage several different times in my life
minus-squareschmidtster@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·9 months agoAh shit, looked up the specs, aluminum body parts instead of steel.
minus-squareschmidtster@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up6·9 months agoNope, but clearly deer fuel can melt aluminum beams.
minus-squarefunkless_eck@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up2·9 months agoaren’t crumple zones a good thing? Didn’t this crumple right or something?
minus-squareschmidtster@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1arrow-down2·9 months agoCrumple zones are in the bumper and is for the occupants I believe. And as for pedestrians and wildlife, you want to deflect them, absorbing it would put more force and damage on them iirc.
