Hey Folks! For those who are traveling our highways and roadways, please take extra care these next couple of weeks. Farmers are in their fields getting field corn out which means heavy equipment on the roadway. Remember the simple rule to make eye contact with the farmer before passing from behind. Often times, they will wait to find a safe spot to pull over to allow you go on by. Exercise some patience. We see many close calls and a few accidents each year due to inattentive driving or impatience. These folks are in the fields all hours of the day harvesting their crops. As the corn is removed, our friendly deer population will be on the move as well. Cooler temps will bring them out during the evening and overnight hours. We will see a large increase in deer vs vehicle crashes over the next few months. If you are involved in an accident with a deer, please pull off the travel portion of the roadway and call 911 if at all possible. Do not attempt to remove the deer from the roadway. This poses a serious risk to both you and other drivers during evening and overnight hours. Be safe in your travels.
