AVOIDING DEER ACCIDENTS

May 29, 2015 by Quentin Childs

In a typical year, Iowa drivers report thousands of vehicle collisions with deer. It seems that any season is deer season and because of their increased activity deer-vehicle accidents happen all year long. Evening and dawn are the most likely times for deer- vehicle collisions.

The following information and precautionary tactics are provided to help you avoid collisions with deer:

  • Don’t swerve to avoid the animal. Swerving may cause you to loose control of your car.
  • Drive at or below posted speed limits in areas where deer crossing signs are posted and in agricultural areas
  • When driving at night, use your high beam headlights when your not in high traffic areas. This will provide an earlier warning to you.
  • Deer usually travel in groups and in single file. If you see one, most likely there are others following.

If you do strike a deer and stop your car. Keep your distance from the animal and call the local law enforcement agency or the Iowa Highway Patrol.
