'Something needs to be done to avoid a fatality,' says passerby who stopped to check on motorist who struck and killed a moose at the bottom of Mile Hill Tuesday night
A Goulais River resident is calling on the province to find a way to curb collisions between vehicles and wildlife on a notorious stretch of highway at the bottom of Mile Hill.
“He said he didn’t even have time to put the brakes on, nothing,” Trevisanut recalled, while speaking with SooToday Wednesday. “He said 30 minutes prior to that, he avoided another moose collision — one ran out on the road. And further up the highway, there was another moose killed and a guy in the ditch for that one, too.”
“This is potential for something to happen, so when you go along that stretch you’ve got to just crawl and keep your eyes peeled,” he said.
