As the seasons change and we approach hunting season, the deer population is becoming increasingly active. This heightened activity means that deer are more likely to be on the move, which can pose a significant risk for drivers. It is essential to exercise caution while driving, particularly during nighttime hours when visibility is reduced.
Drivers should remain vigilant and be prepared for the possibility of encountering deer unexpectedly on the road. The increase in deer activity during this time of year correlates with a rise in accidents involving collisions with these animals. Staying alert and aware can help prevent these unfortunate incidents.
