Mirrors on Road Help Deer, Cut Fatal Car Crashes
At Winamac State Fish and Game Preserve an Indiana experiment uses small polished steel mirrors along roads to reflect headlights and deter deer crossing. Since installation a year ago only three deer have died versus sixteen previously, researchers say. The setup mirrors headlights 10 feet from the road and 6 feet apart to frighten deer away. Authorities call it a pioneering U S test.
