    I hope the investigation reveals whether speed, lighting, or road conditions played a role. We need to learn from this

    We really need better lighting and more fencing in high-risk areas. Too many accidents start with stray animals.

    We can’t keep waiting until someone dies to address the same problems.

    Id the owners and deal with this promptly. There are a number of cows and goats roaming this road night and day. Animal control and prosecution sadly lacking on FHR.
