Not all hazards on rural roads come with warning signs… some are 6-foot-tall dinosaurs that come with a police escort. 🦖
Wildlife moves fast at dawn and dusk – and so should your awareness (not your speed).
More than 10 million native animals are killed on Australian roads every year, according to Wildlife Victoria, with thousands of wildlife collisions reported across Victoria annually.
Regional roads can be unpredictable, so a few simple habits can help:
🦖Slow down at dawn and dusk.
🦖Watch for movement near the roadside.
🦖Avoid swerving suddenly at high speeds.
🦖Leave extra space between vehicles on country roads.
Dinosaurs may be extinct, but the risks aren't. Stay alert and stay safe.
