Brakes. Swerving is just asking for trouble. Hitting a deer isnt as bad as hitting just about anything else, as there is a better chance your insurance will cover the deer over a curb, street sign, or whatever depending on your coverage.

I had no chance to avoid the deer that hit me, the shoulder is steep there and there was a guardrail and tree in the way. I could have swerved, but on the snow tires I would have spun and would probably be worse off.

So yeah, from now on whenever I see a deer I just cut it to about 30mph and hope he doesnt do a jihad into the side of my car.
