Question 1

What type of wildlife is most commonly encountered on rural Saskatchewan roads?

Accepted Answer

Deer and moose

Answer

Deer and moose are the most common large wildlife encountered on Saskatchewan roads. Collisions with these animals, especially moose, can be fatal.

Question 2

When is the highest risk time for wildlife collisions on Saskatchewan rural roads?

Accepted Answer

Dawn and dusk

Answer

Wildlife is most active during dawn and dusk, making these the highest-risk times for animal collisions on rural roads. Reduced light also makes them harder to see.

Question 3

What should you do if a large animal like a moose appears on the road ahead?

Accepted Answer

Brake firmly, stay in your lane, and avoid swerving into oncoming traffic

Answer

Brake firmly to reduce speed while maintaining control. Swerving can result in a rollover or head-on collision, which may be more dangerous than striking the animal.

Question 4

What is the main danger of driving on washboard gravel roads in Saskatchewan?

Accepted Answer

Reduced tire contact with the road, leading to loss of steering and braking control

Answer

Washboard (corrugated) gravel surfaces cause tires to bounce and lose contact with the road, significantly reducing steering and braking effectiveness.

Question 5

When driving on a rural Saskatchewan road and you see farm equipment ahead, what should you do?

Accepted Answer

Slow down and wait for a safe and legal opportunity to pass

Answer

Farm equipment moves slowly and may take up more than one lane. Slow down, be patient, and pass only when it is safe and legal, ensuring you have clear visibility ahead.
