I kinda thought she meant the deer are essentially able to read or understand the sign and thus crossing where told - where the DOT places the crossing signs and if DOT would just tell the deer to cross at less busy traffic sites by placing the Deer Crossing signs in those more remote, less busy roads, why just everybody would be all better off - especially those poor deer she keeps hitting with her car!
I've never hit a deer, dog, cat or other animal but I did hit a bird once and might have hit a squirrel, though I didn't feel a thing but I don't see how I avoided it. Never saw it on the road behind me or where it went. Poor bird hit my windshield right in front of my face, saw feathers fly and then it fell/flew away and off too the side but I'm certain it was dead after that hard hit. Couldn't see it's body lying anywhere but couldn't pull over in 4-lane highway traffic so had to keep going. I felt sick to my stomach.
Imagine after you hit your 2 ton. vehicle into a DEER and send it hoof over head - ooooh - you'd be sick at heart and shattered. Hope she called a vet, AC, wildlife control, DOT or somebody and got those ill-directed deer some help if they were hurt and you know they had to be! Poor animals!
