umm laser lights are well worth the money no matter how you put it. If there's even a 1% chance of using them that could be the difference between hitting a deer or not
You usually don't hit a deer that's 300 yards in front if you. The majority of deer collisions are from deer running directly into the path of the vehicle from the side of the road. Usually only at 20 yards or less. The deer in the headlights scenario a headlight beam strikes eyes that are fully dilated to capture as much light as possible, deer cannot see at all, and they freeze until the eyes can adjust. So laser lights will make the deer stand in the road longer before you hit one?
