Saw a video a couple of days ago of a police cruiser hitting a large whitetail at night.

At 114 mph.

In the beginning of the video, there’s a yellow sign. What is it? It doesn’t look like a deer crossing sign so I don’t understand why those deer crossed the road there.

Maybe there should be a deer leaping sign... but then, those aren’t deer.

Must be mating season & they’re distracted!

Wow.

There’s a stretch between my home and work where deer often cross. We’ve seen some near accidents, and most years we see one dead on the side of the road.

A friend hit one once, and had those ‘deer whistle’ things installed on her car. Do they work at all?

Is that what they are?
The deer in my neck of the woods look different.

Red Deee are native to Europe, but widely transplanted.

Some real beasts in New Zealand.

It looks like it was shot in February of last year. That seems a little late for North American deer to be in ‘mating season’. But if they’re somewhere else, and depending on species, they could be mating then.

I like how the last guy shows off at the end after bouncing off the black car in front...

Looks like a bulls-eye on the big guy’s throat. Nice of him to wear that.

The Michigan State Police did a study some years back and concluded that those whistles were completely ineffective for reducing collisions with deer.

That’s not a North American license plate on the black vehicle. It’s European. Look how wide it is.

Thanks. I was thinking they might be somewhat useful in the case of a solitary deer, but bucks crossing in a bunch are probably heeding some inner or herd thing and might not be affected.

Anyway, we just slow down and keep our eyes open October through December :-)

Doesn’t look like a U.S. lisence plate.
