Wildlife Crashes

              The Insurance Corporation of B-C is warning motorists that other drivers are not the only hazards on the province’s roads. Road safety co-ordinator Ingrid Brakop says the recent five-year-average showed about six crashes per day involving animals — and 11-thousand occurred between 2013 and 2017. She says dusk to dawn is the most dangerous time. Two people died on the Coquihalla Highway in 2017 after hitting a deer, while a fatal rollover just west of Kamloops last weekend, is believed to have been caused by a driver swerving to avoid a deer.
