Safety tip for the week
Spring is just around the corner and with that the animals
are waking up and walking onto the highways!
This week alone there were ten car versus wild animal motor vehicle
collisions. Motorists are reminded to
pay careful attention to the ditches as the deer and moose are blending quite
well with their background. As well
during the evening hours reducing your speed could assist in avoiding a motor
vehicle collision with an animal.
There seems to be no specific trend as to where these occurrences are
taking place however, adhere to the warnings posted by the Ministry of
Transportation advising deer or moose areas.
