All that matters is that your ok

Deer are scary on the road and definitely something you rarely have control over. Good luck with the repair Heather.
Just the other day i almost hit a deer...was driving home from the poconos taking my time on back roads. So I must make everyone aware that the positive terminal on my cars battery is loose and i gotta find another nut and bolt to fix it..so after a week of driving it vibrates a little loose so when I turn the car off and then try to turn it back on all electricity in the car turns off including interior lights gauges ****** everything is black...

So I'm driving home on these gaiety ass back roads and I come around a turn and I see it in slow motion. This female deer just walks out all slow in the middle of the road. Like it felt like a dream so I was slow to react but I slammed on the breaks and before I could put the clutch in for when the wheels lock up it ****** locks the wheels and I stall out. About a foot from the deer it slowly walks off the road.

So at this point I'm coasting with the car off but the lights are all on. I figure I won't even stop I'll just put it in neutral and start her back up and go. The very second I turn the key every ****** light in the car turns off and I'm blindly coasting down the road. There's no houses. No street lights. I'm in the ****** middle of nowhere. I was able to pull the car halfway off the road coasting blind. Hit the four way button so they would come on after I jiggle the battery cable so that people won't come around the turn and hit my car cuz there's no lights on. I popped the hood got out. Jiggled the cable. The interior lights came back on so I closed the hood and go to start it and all the lights shut off AGAIN. So I got back out. Zip tied the cable to the battery got back in. Started the car and was on my way. Still when I was coasting at 30mph and I literally feel like I have a blindfold on and I'm wondering if I'm pulling over in the middle or the side of the road.

Scary shit. **** deer!!!
