MADISON, Wis. (WRN) — Drivers are being reminded to slow down and share Wisconsin roads this spring.
The Wisconsin State Patrol says crashes involving animal-drawn vehicles remain a serious concern. Preliminary data show 165 crashes over the last five years, killing 12 people and injuring nearly 190 others. Officials say these vehicles have the same rights as cars and must display slow‑moving vehicle emblems and proper lighting.
Motorists are urged to slow down, avoid distractions, and pass only when it’s safe and legal.
