Moose Crashes in Maine
- Some 700 crashes with moose occur each year in Maine, resulting in several fatalities and about 200 injuries. Moose weighing up to 1500 pounds and can stand 10 feet tall; collisions often knock their thin legs out and cause the moose to crush the vehicle’s passenger compartment.
- Moose crashes can happen anywhere.
- 80% of Moose crashes and 90% of the fatal crashes occur when it’s dark.
You may feel you can take a relaxed approach during lower-traffic-volume nighttime driving, but it's then that it's vital that you SLOW DOWN and PAY ATTENTION.
And remember to always wear your seat belt! |
