Audio: Radio Caller Says Deer Crossing Signs ‘Encouraging Deer to Cross’ Are Causing Her Frequent Collisions With the Animal

“Calling into the Y94 Morning Playhouse radio show, Fargo-area resident “Donna” aired her frustrations about a number of deer-related car accidents she has been involved in recently – three to be exact.

Donna believes the North Dakota and Minnesota Departments of Transportation are responsible for the problem, however, she told the radio hosts that she has written local news outlets about her grievance and they refuse to take her seriously. It’s extremely frustrating to Donna as she believes she has crafted a very simple and effective solution to her problem.

Well, let’s allow her to explain in her own words:

“My frustration is that, Minnesota and North Dakota Departments of Transportation would allow these deer crossing in such high traffic areas. I mean, I’ve even seen them on the interstate,” Donna began.

“Why are we encouraging deer to cross at the interstate? I don’t get it,” Donna said to two stunned radio hosts.”

  1. HAHAHAHAH …. must have been a leftie !!!

  2. Of course she has no problem with discrimination against Jewish and Muslim deer. Where are the ADL and CAIR when you need them :-)

  3. Next: Pedestrian crossings cause vehicular homicide.

  4. She is not alone in her thinking…

    Right here, in Canada, my husband was once in a conversation with a group of his co-workers (all university educated) talking about a particular stretch of a highway where there were many collissions with deer.

    One of the men seriously suggested that the government should be contacted to move the deer-crossing sign to a less busy section of the road, so the deer would not cross at this spot.

    True story!
