Someties they do, when driving on the highway people can get tunnel vison and in his case goign way too fast it probably did seem to come out of nowhere. Goign around a blind corner? sure that could happen to. It happens. When animals run across a highway with traffic moving 65-70 mph sometimes you just dont see them in time to brake or avoid the deer (which is actually more dangerous, a lot of accident happen because people swerve to avoid the deer and lose control)
When I hit the deer that I did, you can see inthe pic it just came from the side and ran directly into the side of my car. I was in teh left lane goign 70-75 tops and there were no other cars near me, I wouldnt say that the deer is "innocent" if it runs in the road in front of a car it deserves to be hit IMO. Dont get all animal rights on our asses. Its just a deer. In his case, if he was goign slower he might have been able to avoid it, maybe not hopefully he has comprehensive coverage on his insurance plan and it'll be covered (not under collision). In my case, there was no way I could have avoided it, by the time I saw the deer it was 10 feet in front of my car, didnt even have time to hit the brakes. That shit jsut happens sometimes
