Are they slowing down to let the moose lick the car or so as not to run into the damn thing?

Yes it's a good idea, but I think this is in reference to if you leave your car parked somewhere in places where moose may roam. Since the car body and tires pick up road salt, moose can be attracted to it.

And when a moose licks the car, there's a good chance its antlers "lick" the windows.
