When I was a starving college student, me and a couple buddies were riding around in Talladega National Forest one night just cruising around. We headed back to the crib and there was a very alive doe laying in the ditch with both her back legs broken. We drove back to my trailer, I grabbed my bow and we drove back to the deer. Probably 15 minutes round trip. We pulled up and I shot the deer. Got back to the trailer, hung her on the skinning rack, got out the good meat and went in to cook breakfast. I fried some of the tenderloin. It was so tough that you couldn't chew it. Really, teeth wouldn't penetrate it. I guess her adrenaline was pumping and she'd laid there trying to run off for no telling how long. So, I lost a whole nights sleep and still had no meat in the freezer. My first and last experience with closest thing to road kill.
