Road sign spotted in Michigan

Stolen from a bikers’ mailing list that I get:

Sign spotted in Michigan

“Fall is here
Don’t veer
for deer.”

One possible explanation put forth: Swerving to avoid the deer may often have worse consequenses than if the the deer is struck.

It is asssooomed that this sign is meant for the cagers. Us bikers probably ought to avoid the collision as possible.

Anyone having more info than this post ought to post it up. I am hoping that this thread will become a repository for info, analysis, and current thinking about the problem of deer strikes.
