INDIANA MOTORISTS ADVISED TO STAY ON THE LOOKOUT FOR WHITETAIL DEER
Whitetail deer season is underway here in Indiana and motorists are being cautioned to stay on the lookout for deer crossing Indiana roadways. There are several factors contributing to the rise of deer/motor vehicle accidents in these fall months: opening of deer season, deer mating season and a reduction in habitat due to fall harvest.
Indiana is one of the top states in the U.S. for the number of deer/motor vehicle collisions annually. Deer collisions can cause significant property damage and serious personal injury. Indiana drivers are cautioned to stay alert and be on the lookout for deer crossing Indiana roadways.
Be sure you are sufficiently covered through your insurance policy in the event of a deer collision. Collision coverage in your insurance policy generally does not cover deer collisions. Look to see if any provision within your automobile insurance policy covers deer collisions and determine if you are adequately covered.
