Utah officials urge drivers to watch for deer on roads
Original: Watch for deer on roadways during peak migration seasons, darker commuting months
The Utah Division of Wildlife Resources is warning drivers to watch for deer on roadways during peak migration seasons and the darker commuting months. Officials urge extra caution at dawn and dusk, when deer are most active and visibility is reduced, as collisions rise in autumn and winter. Motorists are advised to slow down, stay alert in deer-crossing zones, and remember that where one deer crosses, others often follow.
Why now: Deer migrations and shorter, darker commutes increase vehicle-deer collisions this time of year, prompting a public safety warning.
