What should I know about rural driving in Quebec?

Rural Quebec roads around Coteau-du-Lac often feature narrower lanes and fewer streetlights, requiring extra attention during evening drives through the countryside. Wildlife crossings are common in areas between Coteau and surrounding Saint-Lawrence communities, so maintain moderate speeds and stay alert, especially during dawn and dusk hours.
