We all love a bit of kangaroo chat, so you don’t need to search too far to find forums or news updates on where kangaroo accidents have been taking place. Some states’ transport or environment departments will give you a list of hot spots for vehicle collisions with kangaroos - ACT even calls out its exceptional hot spots for accidents. Whether you’re headed for a weekend in the outback or along the coast, the chances of encountering a roo on the road are much higher in more rural areas.

The Vision is the first-ever Police Body Camera that features a Public Awareness Light (PAL), that's located on the front of the unit.  The purpose of the PAL is to inform the public that they are being recorded.  Designed to promote good behavior from the knowledge of being recorded, the PAL can be programmed to flash during recording, stay steady on or never turn on at all.  The PAL is completely programmable to your preference.

You’re much less likely to encounter kangaroos along the roads during the day and you’ll have better visibility to spot any that are around. When dusk hits and temperatures start to cool down, kangaroos get active and come out to feed, ditto at dawn, plus less light at night means they’re harder to spot on the road.

Slides and clips onto your vehicle’s windshield visor, quickly turning your WOLFCOM Vision into a dash camera. Comes with thread Vision clip and 7ft USB cable for In-car.

When droughts kick in, kangaroos are on the hunt for any decent puddles, grass or vegetation. Roadside kerbs lined with vegetation and grass that livestock can’t reach becomes prime feeding ground when the plains and forests start drying up. If it’s looking dry out stay alert for roadside grazing and unpredictable hops across the road.

‍City-slickers might weave their way through traffic jams with ease, but when road trips head into kangaroo country, drivers may not be quite as slick on the road. We want both you and the ‘roos to get to your destinations safely, so we’ve rounded up our top tips to reduce the risk of a car accident when you’re driving on roads in kangaroo hot spots.With serious power in their hind legs with a hefty frame to boot (male kangaroos can weigh up to 90kg), it’s not hard to see why an accident with a kangaroo could leave you, the animal and your vehicle worse for wear.Keeping your roadside encounters with kangaroos incident-free is the aim of the game. Here’s eight important things to know for safer driving to help reduce the chance of  hitting a ‘roo.

Seasoned drivers know that keeping it slow is the way to go. If you do have to avoid an animal on the road, most states’ transport departments advise staying straight and hitting the brakes rather than swerving. Swerving often ends up creating an even more serious accident if you veer off the road or into surrounding vehicles. Keep it slow and cruisey to sidestep the risk all together.

Statistically, most kangaroo-related car accidents happen in winter. Shorter daylight hours means more hours for kangaroos to be out and about, with cooler weather and less intense temperatures. Add to the mix poor winter weather or icy roads and driving conditions become even trickier. Bring your A-game and be on high alert when driving in winter as the chances of being on the road at the same time as kangaroos are much higher. Â

Kangaroos like to roll with their mob, so if you see one there’s often others. They might not have all 50 of their crew in tow but if there’s a ‘roo bounding along the road, his buddies could be close behind. Keeping your speed down can help you spot them and avoid any issues.

If you do have to drive at night in a kangaroo hotspot, you’ll want to use your high beams to see what’s on the road ahead. Spot a kangaroo? High beams off and a few honks on the horn to try get the kangaroo off the road. Leaving your high beams on can equal a  stunned ‘roo, blinded by your lights. Not ideal.
