It violated the road law, not you. If you hit a deer, it's your fault. Same as if you hit a pedestrian, you must be in control of your car and stop before that happens.

In TN hitting a deer is a non-chargeable claim. You have to be in control of your car but are not responsible for deer or people that jump out into the road. Unfortunately, some people think that they get a free pass to hit cyclists even though cyclists are vehicles.
