What months are deer crashes more common?

‘Tis the season!

Iowa ranks among top ten states for animal-vehicle collisions.

In a typical year, Iowa drivers report thousands of vehicle collisions with deer. It seems that any season is deer season and because of their increased activity, deer-vehicle accidents happen all year long. Evening and dawn are the most likely times for deer- vehicle collisions.

According to Iowa DOT, the number of deer-vehicle accidents in Iowa and around the country has steadily increased. While deer season seems to be year-round nowadays, the greatest risk for deer-vehicle collisions is between October and March due to mating season. Historically, the first week of November is when we record the highest number of crashes between vehicles and deer. If you look at crash statistics in Iowa, the most active two weeks for vehicle/animal crashes begins Nov. 2. Most of those animals are deer. Peak accident periods were from sunset to 4 hours after sunset and from 2 hours before sunrise to sunrise (their meal times). HOWEVER, Spring and Fall tend to be the worst times of the year, but October and November are particular high risk for deer collisions.

Iowa drivers know they need to be watchful for deer at all times of the year, but it’s especially important to be vigilant during fawning season, spring/summer.

And, even when you have done your best to keep an eye out for deer and other animals, but you still collide with one, trust your repairs to Otting Collision & Auto, LLC. You'll be glad you did!

Here we are - in National Independent Retailers Week. This year it falls during July 19-25, as it is always the third week of July with 21st in it.)

So, why shop small/shop local?

Here is what it does for you and for your community...

Economic Impact:
* Higher Recirculation: Studies show that independent businesses recirculate roughly 50% to 70% of revenue back into the local economy.
* Job Creation: Small businesses are the largest employers in the U.S., and owners are more likely to hire workers from the immediate area.
* Local Sourcing: Local shops buy services (like accounting, printing, and maintenance) from other local entities, strengthening the regional business ecosystem.

Community Connection:
* Civic Support: Small business owners donate approximately 250% more to local non-profits, charities, and community events than large chain retailers.
* Preserving Character: Patronizing mom-and-pop shops and local boutiques prevents urban sprawl, maintaining the unique, one-of-a-kind feel of your town.

Personalized Experience:
* Unique Selection: Local boutiques and artisans offer highly distinctive, handmade, or regionally sourced products that you won't find in mass retail.
* Tailored Customer Service: Shop owners and employees are deeply knowledgeable about their crafts and often provide superior, personalized customer care.

We truly appreciate your business and ask you to always shop small, shop local first - whenever you can. It truly helps our commumity.

Insurance Nerd Day is July 18th.

Doesn't sound glamorous? Well, when it comes to your auto insurance, it is important to be that nerd, so you understand what you can do when it comes to YOUR car!

Are you aware that...You Can Choose Your Body Shop!

You deserve experience, quality and integrity.

Yes, your insurance provider may suggest a shop from their “preferred provider network” to take your vehicle for repair work …BUT they cannot force you go to that shop in order to be compensated.

Iowa law states that you have the right to choose your own auto body repair shop, regardless of what your insurance company suggests. They cannot pressure you to use a specific repair shop by denying claims or offering lower settlements if you choose a shop outside their list.

And, it Is always in YOUR best interest to find the trusted shop that has the knowledge, skills and tools to do the necessary repairs correctly – and, not the one that simply saves the insurance company the most money.

The choice of repair facility is 100% yours. This is YOUR vehicle! This is YOUR choice!

You can trust the friendly professionals at Otting Collision & Auto LLC in Cascade, Iowa to provide you with fair and honest estimates and quality repair work!

Our reputation speaks for itself. Since 1960…

Operation Safe Driver Week is July 12-18.

So, what does that mean?

Throughout Operation Safe Driver Week, law enforcement personnel will be on the lookout for commercial motor vehicle drivers and passenger vehicle drivers engaging in risky driving. Identified unsafe drivers will be pulled over and issued a citation or warning.

Data gathered by the Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance shows that traffic stops and interactions with law enforcement help reduce problematic driving behaviors. By making contact with drivers during Operation Safe Driver Week, law enforcement personnel aim to make our roadways safer by targeting high-risk driving behaviors.

* In the U.S., speeding has been a factor in more than a quarter of crash deaths since 2008.
* Speeding of any kind was the most frequent driver-related crash factor for drivers of commercial motor vehicles and passenger vehicles in the U.S. (Source)
* Speeding was a factor in 29% of all U.S. traffic fatalities in 2024, killing 11,288 people.
* Distracted driving claimed 3,208 lives in 2024 in the U.S.
* n 2024, 22,713 passenger vehicle occupants were killed in the U.S. Nearly 50% of those killed were not buckled. Seat belts saved an estimated 14,955 lives and could have saved an additional 2,549 people if they had been wearing seat belts, in 2017 alone.
* Every day in the U.S., about 32 people die in drunk-driving crashes — that’s one person every 44 minutes. In 2024, 11,904 people lost their lives due to drunk driving.

So stay safe this week - and always! But if you find yourself in a fender-bender, bring you vehicle to Otting Collision and Auto LLC for expert repairs at a fair and honest price!
