Data has shown that installing static deer warning signs has not been effective in reducing deer-vehicle crashes. As such, MnDOT policy is to no longer install static deer crossing signs. Existing signs are being removed after they reach the end of their useful lives.
\"NYSDOT has worked with the state Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) and the state Thruway Authority to ensure that roads have plenty of warning signs posted where moose and deer are known to travel. This is especially important from October through December during the animals' peak breeding times when they are far less cautious. The greatest risk for deer-vehicle collisions emerges during these months; most of them occur in the two hours before sunrise and after sunset each day.\"
Once I got to the 1.5-mile mark past the sign which includes a populated area, I realized that there was at least another mile of road before the next populated area. Last year, a deer crossed my path in that mile that I barely missed. Deer cross in this mile and for many miles of rural and often wooded areas after this sign. How is it determined which areas are designated for deer crossing and which are not
\"Deer-crossing signs are installed where there is a significant pattern of deer-vehicle crashes over a period of three years or more,\" she said. \"Segments of highway can look very similar but have a very different crash history, which is why you'll find deer warning signs in one area and no deer-warning signs a mile or two down the road. Terrain can also affect where 'herd paths' develop, which will influence the frequency of deer crossing the highway.\"
\"Deer population in upstate New York is significant and motorists should drive defensively on all highways,\" she said. \"They should be especially vigilant for deer on suburban and rural highways at this time of year due to the higher level of activity among the deer population,\" she said. \"Most deer-vehicle crashes occur within two hours of sunrise or sunset, so be especially careful at dawn and dusk.\"
On 17 September 2012, a woman later dubbed \"Donna the Deer Lady\" called the weekly \"vent line\" feature of Fargo radio station Y94's \"Morning Playhouse\" show and stated that she had been in three car accidents involving deer in the last few years, all of which had occurred near deer-crossing signs; she then offered seemingly earnest complaints about officials' \"allowing these deer crossings to be in such high-traffic areas\" and questioned \"why we are encouraging deer to cross the interstate.\" The following month, a recording of that call received wide circulation on the Internet via YouTube.
A driver who hits a deer with a vehicle is not required to report the accident to the Game Commission. If the deer dies, only Pennsylvania residents may claim the carcass. To do so, they must call the Game Commission region office representing the county where the accident occurred and an agency dispatcher will collect the information needed to provide a free permit number, which the caller should write down.
The woman identified only as Donna told radio station Y94 The Morning Playhouse she had been involved in three car accidents in the last few years, all involving deer just after she passed a deer crossing sign.
\"My frustration is that Minnesota and North Dakota departments of transportation would allow these deer crossings to be in such high-traffic areas,\" she told the radio hosts. \"I mean I've even seen them on the interstate. Why are we encouraging deer to cross the interstate I don't get it.\"
\"They can direct their deer population anywhere they want to by moving that deer crossing sign,\" she said. \"Why in the world would they place it on the highway or the interstate, you know I mean, god.\"
These crossings are important in reducing wildlife-vehicle collisions and in allowing wildlife safe movement over and under Utah's expanding transportation network. Wildlife crossing structures (underpasses and overpasses), exclusionary fencing and a variety of wildlife signs are some of the ways that UDOT and DWR are working to decrease the number of wildlife that are killed from vehicle strikes.
It takes a lot of planning, coordination and funding to get wildlife needs built into the transportation network. As a result, wildlife crossings can't be placed everywhere. UDOT and DWR work together to determine potential locations for wildlife crossings. Crossing locations are selected based on several factors, most importantly, the number of wildlife vehicle collisions that are occurring in an area.
Dr. Cramer documented more than 43,000 successful mule deer passages through wildlife crossings over the six-year period. She also documented use of crossings by elk, moose and a variety of other Utah mammals. 59ce067264
