ELI5: Why do deers run out into a highway full of loud cars and bright lights yet the smallest footstep rustling leaves in the woods can spook them?

Learned behavior. A rustling in the leaves is related to a potential predator. Lights and engine noises are related to those big metal buffalo things that always stay on that black hard stuff. They realize cars aren't predators. Also confirmation bias. Maybe 90% of deer *do* run away from cars.
