Dubois Sheriff deputies believe alcohol was involved and charges may be filed at a later date.
The crash was reported at 8:44 p.m. just west of Cuzco Road on State Road 56.
The driver, 38-year-old Kaleb Connell of Shoals, was outside of his 2003 Subaru when police arrived at the scene. Connell told police he was traveling west on State Road 56 when he had to swerve to miss a deer.
