For sure. While travelling an elevated highway in my pickup, a doe came out of the deep ditch on my left and crossed in front of me. I hit the brakes and was congratulating myself on missing her when her yearling came charging after her. No way I was going to be able to miss him, but I was standing on the brakes anyway. Fortunately for me, his rear hooves slipped on the asphalt as he tried to cross the road and my right tires ran over his back before he could stand up. Killed him instantly. No damage to the truck at all, fresh venison, and little meat damage.
