AAA Urges Caution and Gives Tips during Peak Deer Season

Fall deer season is prime time for deer collisions as incidents increase mid-to-late fall during mating season.  Valerie Puma with AAA shared tips on how to handle a collision…

 

“Apply the brakes very firmly but remain in your lane.  Get yourself in a safe position pulling off on the side of the road.  Make sure that you are as visible as possible—flashers on—is going to be the safest place for you to be while you are waiting for assistance.”

David Curst with AAA suggests comprehensive car insurance coverage…

“A comprehensive is going to cover anything with deer strikes.  It’s gonna cover weather related things.  Things that are going to be out of the person’s control.  We always recommend it even if the car is paid off.”
