I don't *think* so... The problem is that usually deer are hit in the
night, and no one wants to stop and field dress a carcass when you've
got to think about getting your banged up car home.
What this state does have is a group called, "Hunters for the Hungry".
If you're having a lot of trouble with deer, you can call and they will
come out and "prune a few" out of the herd, giving the meat to the food
banks. The problem is, this can only be done in sparcely populated
areas, and the deer seem to be smart enough to know that they're free to
wander about un-molested in the city. They're really a menace here,
where they won't let my garden grow.

Does Virginia allow the driver to keep the venison?
I have been told that Indiana keeps a list of hard-up people who know
how to dress a deer, and gives one of them the deer when the driver
doesn't want it. By good fortune, I've never checked this out.
We did hit a deer once, in New York State, but all we found was a
sitzmark next to a chain-link fence. We figured that a deer who got
out of there without leaving tracks on this side of the fence couldn't
have been injured too badly -- we were going slow when it jumped into
us, because Dave had started braking when he saw the first deer cross
the road.
