Don't Dent Deer!

 

Here are some tips to avoid hitting a deer:

• Slow down, particularly at dusk and dawn. 
• If you see one deer, be prepared for more deer to cross the road. 
• Pay attention to deer crossing signs. 
• Always buckle up — every trip, every time. 
• Use your high beams to see farther, except when there is oncoming traffic. 
• Don't veer for deer. Brake if you can, but avoid swerving, which can result in a more severe crash. 
• Remain focused on the road. Scan for potential dangers, including animals. 
• Avoid distractions. Devices or eating might cause you to miss seeing an animal. 
• Do not rely on products such as deer whistles. They are not proven effective. 
• If riding a motorcycle, always wear protective gear. Keep focused on the road ahead
