Deer warnings

Does anyone have these on their car? My last car hit a deer and I am thinking of putting them in my lower grill.

You cannot stop the deer.

You should have told your last car to be more careful. Anyway, those things are pretty much a joke.

AGREED. they do not work. I do have to relate a funny story about these though. I got a pair of these in a grab bag at Christmas party once and showed them to my wife. She asked if they whistled at the deer once they saw them to scare the deer away? I just replied, no, but you're pretty close. (no, she's not a blonde). he he

Really? After hitting a few deer back in the late 80's when I was going to high school in PA I put some on my car and never hit another deer again.(I think i hit 4 within 2 months, doing about $4000 worth of damage each time) I drove past lots of deer... some of them right in the middle of the road. They just stayed still and looked at me... working as advertised. PA has a LOT of deer and I really think they made a difference. I haven't used them since that car though.
