Another car vs cow incident - Farmers please check fences!
The latest reported incident happened on Hororata Dunsandel Rd last week. The motorist was not hurt but the cow was killed. The crashes are a “good reminder” to farmers to check their boundaries.
“With mycoplasma bovis in the district the need to run a secondary boundary fence isn’t a bad thing, especially if it’s at a gateway then that provides a double level of security,” North Canterbury Federated Farmers dairy chairman Michael Woodward said.
Selwyn District Council senior animal control officer Steve Clarke is advising people driving on rural roads to make sure they are aware of potential hazards.
If you do see farm animals on the road please report it through our 24-hour line – 347 2800
