Queanbeyan has again been identified as Australia's worst location for car crashes with wildlife.

A survey of nearly 20,000 claims by national insurance company AAMI found the worst suburbs for animal-related collisions after Queanbeyan were Bendigo in Victoria, Dingo in Queensland, Singleton in New South Wales and Goulburn in New South Wales.

In the ACT, inner north suburbs around the Parliamentary Triangle were the leading hotspots.

The data showed 88 percent of collisions involved kangaroos.

"Of course they can be pretty large and pretty heavy so if you're driving at speed you can do a pretty serious amount of damage [and] potentially do some quite bad injuries to the driver and passenger as well," AAMI spokesman Michael Mills said.

Wallabies accounted for a further 6 per cent of crashes, while wombats were involved in 3 per cent and dogs in 2 per cent of incidents.

Mr Mills said accidents with wildlife also jumped by nearly 70 per cent during winter.

"Winter of course you have less daylight hours so that means peak-hour travel times often occur during dawn and dusk," Mr Mills said.

"Now not only do drivers have reduced visibility and reaction times but animals are also most active during these times."

He encouraged motorists to avoid driving at night if possible when it was harder to see the animals.
