In the county I get them, they really don't care. The cops that do the police report when they get hit always say if you get pulled over and they ask, have them call me and then they always give me there card. Ive done pretty good in the woods the last few years so I haven't gotten a road kill in a while.
Meat is meat and he will def. make some good sausage. At least you go some meat in the freezer and not too much damage to your truck/trailer!
