Deer mating season is underway, and that means an increased risk of deer-related collisions on New Jersey roadways. With activity typically peaking from mid-October through mid-December, drivers should be especially alert during morning and evening commutes. Shorter daylight hours and the recent end of Daylight Saving Time can make encounters even more likely, particularly when deer are moving near busy roads. A split-second encounter can lead to a serious accident, so slowing down and staying aware of your surroundings is especially important this time of year. Check out our deer safety tips above and share them with family and friends. A little extra caution can go a long way toward preventing a collision. If the unexpected happens, Mike's Towing & Recovery is available 24/7 for towing and recovery assistance. Call 908-722-2122 whenever you need us. Stay alert, drive safely, and watch out for deer!
