Dear Editor:
As she lay dying at the bus stop the traffic didn’t miss a beat — cars, trucks, buses, bicycles and walkers all starting a new day.
A delivery van driver did not see her as she and another tried to cross the road.
Deer crossing signs failed to capture the driver’s attention this bright, sunny morning. Her body was still warm, even without life. A beautiful creation of nature gone and, a family of three safe for now, in the nearby forest.
istrict staff arrived to claim the body and my two new acquaintances and I returned to our day ahead. Please pay attention to the deer crossing signs and speed limits on Dollarton Highway in the District of North Vancouver.
Always drive with care here and be alert to the wildlife that call this place their home too.
