Keep an eye out while driving, especially in the evening or at night because deer collisions are most likely to happen
between late October and through the end of November. Statistics show that in the last five years, there has been a 21 percent increase in the number of these accidents. This could be attributed to the expansion of rural areas but the same deer population. In order to prevent these collisions, slow down and hit your horn as simultaneously as you can. Other tips:
- Use your high beams if there is no oncoming traffic
- Blink your high beams if you see a deer
- Wear your seat belt
- Do not try to help the animal if you do collide, just move your car off to the side of the road if you have damages to your vehicle
Massachusetts auto insurance policies typically included the following coverage:
- Liability
- Medical
- Collision
- Comprehensive
