Dems, you really don't know who was watching you get your juvenile jollies... they just didn't shoot at you.

How long does the rut last so I'll know and feel better about driving. I hate driving now because at night and morning its dark and I'm so terrified of one jumping out at me again. As a result I drive really slowly but unfortunately it makes jerks tailgate me. That exacerbates the problem. Now I'm worried about hitting a deer AND getting rear ended all in one fail swoop. I was really hoping the whistles would work. Then hoping maybe I just had them on wrong - I have them like this on my bumper {>>>> - figured it to be the obvious direction.

fail?

Most people worry about hitting a deer this time of year. It's normal. Best thing you can do is to educate yourself about what to do in the moment that you do hit one.

Right now it would be extracting the car from behind me that went up my azz.

I just figured if you drove slow and cautiously enough you could always avoid it then learned last October sometimes you just can't avoid it at any speed, so I got deer whistles. Glad I didn't buy abuot 50 of them and put them all over my truck
