If you've been in a car accident, it's very likely that you experienced whiplash, if not more serious injuries.
Did you know that whiplash can happen even at speeds as low as 5 MPH?
Did you also know that chiropractic care after a car accident is covered under your car insurance? If you've recently been in an accident, even a one-vehicle accident involving a deer, come see Dr. Burtis to get your whiplash or other injuries taken care of!
The Minnesota State Patrol and Wright County Sheriff’s Office are urging motorists to drive with additional caution – especially around sunrise and sunset – due to an increase in vehicle-deer accidents. Given the number of deer in Minnesota, collisions with vehicles happen year-round, but this time of year is when those accidents historically hit their peak. The combination of the loss of cover crops and rut season has deer on the move, which will be even more pronounced when fi****ms deer season begins in most of the state on Saturday. In a typical week throughout the year, a handful of car-deer accidents take place. Over the last three weeks, the Wright County Sheriff’s Office alone has responded to 45 car-deer accidents – a seasonal spike that happens every year and reason for additional concentration for drivers.
