1. Livestock
Livestock refers to domesticated farm animals such as cattle, sheep, goats and pigs that are kept for agricultural purposes. In road traffic, livestock may occasionally be moved along or across public roads, particularly in rural and farming areas.
Drivers approaching livestock should reduce speed, leave sufficient space and avoid sudden noise or movements that could frighten the animals. Animals on the road should be kept under proper control so that they do not obstruct traffic or cause accidents.
How should drivers behave near livestock?
Drivers should slow down, leave sufficient space and avoid frightening the animals. They should be prepared to stop if the animals become unpredictable or block the road.
