Deer Damage to New Car - Toyota Matrix

Jarod's parents bought him a brand new 2009 Toyota Matrix as a graduation present at Lithia Toyota of Medford, Oregon. He was selected by the dealership to receive a free Flip Mino HD camcorder to make a video of his new car experience.

Five hours after leaving the dealership, Jarod (17) was driving with his two friends along a beautiful deserted stretch of roadway near Mount Shasta, California when, out of nowhere, a young white tailed deer sprang from the bushes and jumped in front of the car. Unable to avoid the deer, Jarod hit the animal in a head-on collision. The camera captures both the accident and Jarod's reaction to the damage to the brand new car.

Jarod films the damage that hitting the deer did to his car in this walkaround.

You know what my parent bought me for a graduation present? A tie.

You know what I got for a graduation present? A slap on the back and a "good job, son".

Wow it's horrible to see the damage of a deer could do to a car like that. As I drive home at night from upstate New York to the city, I see deer all the time at the side of the road. I almost hit them atleast three times now! Luckily I didn't hit them though.

@TheStreetracer96 So you think all gay people should die? What about the potential contributions to society all these people could make? People told Einstein he was stupid, did that deter him from becoming one of the most important human minds of all time? If we follow your advice, consider how many brilliant minds we may be destroying unknowingly. And in any case, I assume you aren't gay, so why does it bother you that there are people who are? I'm not gay BTW, but I do have friends who are.
