I believe it. I have only encountered a Moose 1 time in my life so far (some how) and he just darted out into the road infront of me. If I was going any faster or left a little earlier I most likely would have taken him out at the knee’s and been gone myself.

The girl I knew was sitting in the back seat of a car when it hit the moose and went right through the windshield and landed in the back seat--horrible!

My condolences. I have heard about that happening a lot and being the driver in a car when a moose decides to cross the road I can totally see how it happens.
