## Caption

A national park is one of the few places where a traffic jam can be caused by a bear, a bison, or someone taking 47 photos of a squirrel.

That was you? Driving safely in a national park means more than simply driving the speed limit, although that is a surprisingly good place to start.

Obey traffic regulations. Wear your seatbelt. Pay attention to the road.

And remember, the wildlife has right of way. This is especially important because a bison is unlikely to stop and exchange insurance information.

Slow down, stay alert, and enjoy the park. Your destination will still be there when you arrive.

NPS Image: Well, there was a sign. A bison walks down the road past a sign reading ‘large wildife on road next 13 miles’
