At this time of year, deer tend to have family gatherings like we do... Their get-togethers just often happen along the highway or in the middle of the road. 😒

Unless you want to crash (literally) their reunion frolics, be sure to keep these tips in mind to avoid a deer collision:
📵 Focus on the road & ditch distractions
🐢 Slow down to give yourself more reaction time
🌒 Watch for deer between dusk & dawn when they're most active
🦌 Remain calm & brake firmly—never veer—for deer in the road
🚘 Use your high beams when safe to see better
👀 Look for deer eye reflections on roadsides to forewarn you
