3.  Be particularly alert at dusk and dawn, since this is when deer tend to be more active.

Avoid distracted driving.

 

4. If a deer is near the road or in it, break firmly and slow down. They usually travel in herds, so the chances are there will be more than one around. If a deer is in the middle of the road, blow your horn in one long blast to scare it away.

 

5. Do not swerve around the animal. Most serious accidents are caused by drivers turning into other lanes of traffic or hitting a pole, tree or another car.
