Sounds promising, but I need video proof of the functionality of this thing. They had them stupid black siren looking things before that didnt work worth a damn.
I actually responded to a MVA with a deer that had them on it. I laughed.

I wonder if they installed those things in the forest preserve near my house. There used to be a new dead deer every few days but now I might see one per year. I see them on the road side all the time but they have yet to run in front of me.
yea but 10 grand every mile isnt exactly cost effective.
End of the article said the updated models would cost about half of that. Considering how much it could save insurance companies Hell why not just try it out few states at a time. And that video is hilarious

That and how long will it take before the deer get used to it and ignore it
"According to the company’s U.S. representative, Edward A Mulka, the alert doesn’t scare the deer away, but simply catches their attention, causing them to freeze as if they’ve sensed a predator nearby."

"And if you think the deer just get used to the alerts over time and eventually ignore them, Mulka says that hasn’t been the case. In fact, when he removed a test installation near Fort Dix in New Jersey, accidents remained low for over six months, suggesting the deer in the area may have actually learned to associate oncoming cars with danger after being exposed to the system for some time."
