What you may have missed in Driver’s Ed

October

Football, colorful leaves, back-to-school sales and wildlife dead on the highway are just a few of the seasonal signs, according to Defenders of Wildlife.

The organization has mounted a “Watch Out for Wildlife” campaign, which includes tips on how to avoid car-animal collisions and what to do if you hit one. “Think like an animal” is one suggestion. Enlisting your passengers for assistance is another – kind of like riding shotgun without the shotgun.

“Pay attention to both sides of the road by scanning from side to side. If you have passengers, ask them to help you keep an eye out for animals.”

The first 1,000 drivers to take the WOFW pledge get a free car kit.
