Not that I'm recommending riding that fast in environment, but had he been going 70 or 80, presumably he would've passed in front of the deer before the deer got to him.
In my case I hope that the hedge-creatures hear my bike making a ton of noise well before I get to them so they either freeze up or jump out well in advance of me arriving. So far I haven't had anything jump out on me. Except maybe the odd mouse or squirrel... which you don't need to brake for. I'd feel bad about it though if I did squish one.
