OK, its just a deer, but the future is clear. These things are going to start kill people left and right.

How many kids is Elon going to kill before we shut him down? Whats the number of children we're going to allow Elon to murder every year?

factor in the car's angle towards the horizontal as you accelerate or brake

So almost zero difference. Cars do not rock back and forth like a yo-yo when they accelerate or brake.

Now factor in the difference of force between hitting something at 40 and hitting something at 80 or more.
