Kangaroo collisions are damaging a record number of cars in Victoria, and the RACV—a major provider of both roadside assistance and insurance—is pleading with motorists to slow down and be more alert.
Between 2021 and June 2025, the Royal Automotive Club of Victoria (RACV) Insurance received over 23,000 claims for kangaroo-related collisions, with 2024 recording the highest number of claims at 5,883. That’s over 16 collisions every day of the year.
