If you drive rural or outlying roads, take it easy, the deer have a death wish lately. Hard winters drive wildlife into the lower areas and onto roadways. I've noticed a ton of roadkill lately. When I was driving in on Trent the other morning, I saw a WSDOT crew picking up dead deer, and even one moose killed near my house. They had a pickup truck full of carcasses. Job security I guess, although that's one job I don't envy.
Anyway, my point is, be observant, especially at night. Animals are just waiting to jump out in front of you.
Want to know what transportation projects are proposed for Spokane County, what your alternatives are to driving alone, and how to find out about local road closures or backups caused by accidents and other incidents? This blog is designed to educate the public on all transportation-related issues in Spokane County.
