What I remember first and foremost, is don't drive in the dark in October/November (rutting season for White Tail deer), lest ye hit those horny fuckers! ๐ฆ ๐
I've been hit by two at dusk+ right here, in early November. So there's good reason why locals put those tubular steel bumpers on the front of their pickups: they do save money in the long run. ๐

@chessert@mastodon.online they are a menace at dusk and dawn a month back i crested a hill, spotted them immediately to the side but already too late for their annoying habit of going into the road in panic. luckily i wasn't going that fast and a trick of timing meant just as they leapt up my car hood scooped them up and onto their side. they slid right off and onward, unharmed and unfazed, and they bounded away
