After three hits, have you thought about a guard rail, more trees, or some stout bollards planted about 6' deep?
I live on a state highway with a 20,000 car daily traffic count. I can't begin to remember all the accidents within 500 ft that have occurred during the past 50 years. Three involved fatalities, one was a police pursuit, and the most spectacular was a car that was fully embedded in my neighbors dining room. When my neighbor leaped out of bed and ran to the stairs, he failed to notice that the stairs were taken out too. He was hauled away in an ambulance but the driver was unhurt.
I have seen used guardrail piled up in scrap yards. My solution was a little more aesthetic. Granite came from a New York Central RR bridge abutment. It's only been grazed once with minimal displacement. I get a little apprehensive about going to the mailbox.
