An endeavoring deer clearly looking for a shortcut to downtown crossed all 4,233 feet of the Inner Belt Bridge last night, her trip captured by Channel 5’s ace overnight photographer Mike Vielhaber.
The courteous creature, traveling at about 30 mph, stayed to the right and allowed faster drivers to pass, which is better traffic decorum than most Cleveland drivers display, before exiting at Ontario Street.
Just another night in Cleveland. Here's a deer running across the @ODOT_Innerbelt at 1:15am. I stayed behind her with my flashers on until she got off at Ontario. At one point we were going 30mph. #ThisisCle pic.twitter.com/jCWPdClHmc
