Driving Safety Tips
Divers should be on the lookout of moose and other wildlife near roadways any time of the year. Be alert and continuously scan both sides of the road and along road corridors and medians. Slow down and reduce your driving speed, especially when visibility is restricted by terrain, weather or headlights of on-coming traffic. Use extra caution near posted moose crossings.
