A study by Statefarm reveals that Wisconsin is ranked seventh in the nation for most car-deer collisions. However, these types of car accidents are on the decline all over the country. Wisconsin has seen a 1% decrease since last year.

Drivers in this state have a one in 97 chance of hitting a deer. October is the second most dangerous month for car-deer accidents since deer start to mate and migrate in the fall. November has the highest risk of getting into an accident with a deer.

State law enforcement suggest, with the drivers’ best interests in mind, that motorists will be safest to not avoid a deer in the road. Swerving out of the way could result in more damage and more serious injuries.
