The most prevalent sight along Michigan roadways especially at this time of the year is deer carcasses.
In the middle of fall is when the white-tails are mating and migrating, and orange-clad hunters are in their tree stands. That's a combination that gets a large number of deer crossing the road without looking both ways resulting in some 80,000 car-deer collisions a year in Michigan alone (http://www.mkb.cc/forum/smileys/shame.gif)
One enterprising car dealer near Milford, MI looking to take advantage of the carnage put up this prominent sign along I-96 offering to clean the fur and venison out of afflicted cars, along with fixing the dents.

Now where is that (http://www.mkb.cc/forum/smileys/bbq.gif)
