Default Noticing more whitetail roadkill?

I have always noticed a lot more whitetail roadkill in the fall. Makes sense since it coincides with the rut. Usually roadkill is very few and far between once into winter, until the fall arrives again.

But over the past week, I have seen at least 5 dead deer on the side of road within my travel routes. I have never noticed this before. What's the deal? Does it have to do with does giving or about to give birth? I would think that would have happened last month, but the rut was weird this past fall. I was never sure WHEN it actually happened.
