Experts Say Avoid Swerving, Hit Deer Head-On

There are one million car crashes with deer in the US every year, says the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Over 200 deaths have been reported in the wreck. One family in particular hit a deer while taking an evening driver. “A deer had hit another vehicle in the other lane and bounced off of them and hit our vehicle,” said the driver. The reason deer accidents increase this time of year, from October to December, is that deer mating season is underway, and deer aren’t thinking correctly. The average cost of a collision with a deer is $3,000. “I would say you need to watch the ditches. I know it’s more difficult at night, but if you have your brights on that does help a little bit. It won’t keep the deer at bay, but you might be able to catch them sooner and avoid an accident and a lot of money,” said the driver in a deer accident. Experts say it’s safer to hit the animal than swerve, according to news reports.

A single-car wreck Saturday night was a result of speeding along with slippery roads in Columbia. The 27-year-old driver was heading east when his Hyndai Sonata veered off the road and crashed into a tree. The driver was partially ejected from the vehicle, according to news reports.
