Default Will insurance cover this?

Either way, that would be pretty crazy to see.

In Alberta/Canada, pretty sure your comprehensive coverage would cover that...ask me...just going through it....kinda.

Wife hit a deer a month ago while driving back home...no problems as she was not injured, which was the main thing.

But the fun started after that. Reported to police, and insurance. All good, $100.00 deductible.

Due to supply issues, all my body shop could get was the bumper and the left fender. The left side headlight assembly (2013 Buick Enclave) cannot be found at this time. They checked many sources, and some contacts I have...nada!

Therefore, we are still waiting for it before it gets fixed...

You are comparing that video to a deer collision on the highway?

It's just hard to get parts lately - whether you hit the critter or the critter hits you.

A self loading moose is a Once in a lifetime opportunity.

in the early 90's I had a similar experience with a pair of beef bulls.
I had just bought a new dodge truck that morning and decided to drive out and check some of the cows that I had strung out in central alberta.I usually ran a older bull and a yearling together and had great results with this combo.The old bull would do the majority of the breeding and the young bull would try to sneak in on the old boys turf,so Im sure there was some animosity on the old boys part that the young bull snuck in sometimes and sampled the forbidden fruit.
Anyways,the bulls were lying very close together resting when I arrived,as I was driving by,the young bull stood up first with the old bull slowly standing.When the truck was just a few feet from the young bull and directly in line,the old boy rammed him into the box of my 1 hour old truck,the young bull stood up and got rammed a second time ,once again hitting the box.The left side of the truck was destroyed.Insurance did cover the accident and the the old bull got named..... I should have shot ya

Default What insurance

I would rather have a damaged truck than a damaged back. A self-loading moose.
