Request To Drivers

Oh good grief. Damn deer... I have them everywhere. LOL

I actually love deer and have a small herd that is so used to people they come right up to my front porch where I'm standing. (And yes, I am one of those weirdos who will carry on a "conversation" with them while they're there...lol) They have always been around the house, and I know firsthand what a danger they can be to drivers and such. I have a hard time keeping them from jumping off the bank onto the hood of my car when I go down my driveway. I also had one run out into the road, halt about the same time I braked, and then run head first into the driver side door of my completely still truck, almost knocking the side mirror off. Luckily the deer was ok.

I've heard those little deer whistle things do work well. I haven't tried one yet though.

Oh, and we also have to worry about bear incidents. Two cars were totalled just last week in two seperate run-ins with bears. One of the bears survived, but the other didn't.

Be cautious, be observant, and stay safe out there y'all.
