How have courts treated wildlife collision cases?

British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from Ziemer v. Wheeler, 2014 BCSC 2049 (CanLII):

With regard to wildlife collision cases, “no general propositions of law can be extracted from them except to say that these cases all depend on the facts” (Pitts Enterprises at para. 12). Whether a driver is negligent when he runs into wildlife on the road depends on all of the circumstances of the particular case (Fajardo v. Horianopoulos, 2006 BCSC 147 at para. 24).
