Moose lights
Moose lights!
Mercedes Benz has lights that shine into the ditches. It is an extra light switch that when turned on shines lights into the ditches on either side of the road. It might even be connected to the high beam light switch but I’m pretty sure it was a separate switch. It’s been a while since I’ve driven a Mercedes.
I imagine that fog lights could be adjusted to accomplish the same thing on any car?
A moose from back on at night looks like a man bent over!
Update:
Ontario Govt brochure how to avoid wildlife accidents.

- Brake firmly if an animal is standing on the road, or about to cross.
Never assume the animal will move out of the way.
- Never swerve suddenly. This could cause your vehicle to go out of
control.
- Scan the road ahead from shoulder to shoulder. When you see wildlife
beside the road, slow down and pass carefully as they could suddenly
bolt onto the road.
