- Be especially watchful at dawn and dusk when deer are particularly active;
- Watch for more than one deer, as they seldom travel alone;
- Reduce speed and be alert near wooded areas or green spaces such as parks or golf courses and near water sources such as streams or ponds;
- Don’t swerve to avoid hitting a deer – the most serious accidents sometimes occur when motorists swerve and collide with another vehicle or run off the road and hit an obstacle;
- Heed deer crossing signs;
- Always wear a seat belt and use appropriate child safety seats; and
- Use bright lights and slow down whenever the reflective eyes of deer are spotted.
