These photographs correspond to an accident which took place during late-evening darkness on Hwy. 11 near South River, Ontario, in May 2004. Although the driver of the Chevrolet Lumina was aware of the presence of moose in the area and kept a look-out for them with her car's high beams on, she came upon one of the large creatures unexpectedly and was unable to stop in time. The automobile struck the moose, sending the animal tearing through the car's roof and partway out the back window.
Although the moose was killed by collision, the driver escaped relatively unscathed, a broken hand her most serious injury.
