Common Causes of Car Accidents #13: Swerving to avoid hitting a deer.

With over 1 million deer-related accidents each year, it’s important to understand how critical it is to be aware of your surroundings when driving so that you can make calm, smart decisions.

Never swerve. Swerving increases your risk of hitting another vehicle, rolling over, or crashing into a stationary object. Split second reactions have unpredictable outcomes and put yourself and others at risk.

As the driver, you must always be in control of your vehicle. Reduce speed safely. Stay in your lane. And brace to hit the deer straight on to minimize potential damage.
