When an accident involving a reindeer occurs

  • Prohibit extra damages and take the reflective triangle to the road at least 100 metres from the car to warn others.Make sure to call 112 and give first aid to people who are injured.
  • Put down the reindeer or find a person who will do it for you.
  • Call 112. Even if the reindeer continues, it is likely that it is hurt. Do not leave the animal to suffer.
  • Move the carcass to the side of the road and mark it clearly. Do not take it with you.
  • Inform your insurance company if there have been damages to persons or car.
  • Call 112 even if you just hit the reindeer mildly
