Risk Of Deer-Vehicle Collisions Increases In November; Average Repair Cost Exceeds $4,500, AAA Oklahoma Says

Thursday, November 1st, 2018 Auto

Fall is in the air, and so is love — a kind of love that can be oh so costly, especially if you own a newer-model car. Vehicle-deer collisions will become more common in weeks to come, according to AAA Oklahoma and the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation — with a robust white-tailed deer population in Oklahoma, cooler weather that sends deer searching for more food sources and the mating season just around the corner. Tim Wolf, owner and president of Floyd and Son’s Body Shop in Tulsa, has a lifetime of experience in the deer woods. He said he sees vehicles damaged by collisions with deer — and feral swine — all year long, but odds of collision increase in November. On the way to a deer hunt last weekend, his party counted five deer on the side of the road in one 30-mile stretch.
