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?

Is there a longer video anywhere? Looking closely I have to wonder where the hell did that deer come from? There's a car up ahead of the Tesla in the same lane, I presume quickly moved back in once it passed the deer? The deer didn't spook or anything from that car?

This would have been hard for a human driver to avoid hitting, but I know the issue is the right equipment would have been better than human vision, which should be the goal. And it didn't detect the impact either since it didn't stop.

But I just think it's peculiar that that deer just literally popped there without any sign of motion.

Ever hear the phrase "like a deer caught in headlights"? That's what they do. They see oncoming headlights and just freeze.

That's why you flash your lights on and off at them, to get them to unfreeze before you get too close.
