So long, Tony Stewart

Same story last January 17th at night following a vehicle in the dark, The vehicle in front of me swerves at the last second leaving me to hit what he saw. A Buck, $3,000 in damage to my truck. I didn't see the Animal, and couldn't avoid it. Dragged it under my right rear wheel. Sure sounds similar.
Raced a long time. Stay in the CAR! Walk out, you are in the path of another car , if he was hit by a lesser known person, would you be reading about it?
