Cause of Accident & Third Cerebus Code


I feel like I missed something...What hit the windshield and caused the accident at the beginning of the movie? And how did Kang get the third code? I thought the president told the Sec of Def they would never get his code.

Based on the synopsis I read, a deer hit the windshield. And the bad guys were running a code breaker program that starts with like 'aaaaa' then goes to 'aaaaa' etc... they were going to use it to break all three codes, but since the President told the other two to give it, the program didn't have to work as hard or long.

Just watched it and looked at the accident a couple times. Looked more like a tree falling on to the car during the storm.

Does it matter if the object was not shown? For the script purposes, something cracked the windshield and the agent lost control. That's it!

I saw some agents scratching but I am not upset the director did not put onscreen the bug or whatever bit them! Or should he have?
