It was a normal commute for the people driving along Minnesota's I-35W highway. Traffic was a bit heavy to begin with, but thankfully everyone was driving at the same pace, the weather was beautiful, and no one seemed to be rushing around or endangering anyone else.
That peace was shattered when, in the median, a mama duck and her babies suddenly arrived out of nowhere and made the decision to cross the road.
What resulted was one of the most heart-stopping one-minute videos you could ever hope to see. This short clip from a security camera has more excitement and suspense than any of the blockbuster action movies that have come out in the past 90 years!
While some people might think the lucky ducks were cute as they played frogger, the Minnesota police can't help but watch this video in horror. It really is a miracle that no traffic accidents were caused due to these web-footed friends. The little red car at the :40 second mark was a sitting duck; the driver should be thanking his lucky stars that a huge tractor trailer wasn't behind him. Otherwise, this could be a very different story.
Either way, we're glad that no motorists were injured during this incident, and also thankful that the ducks made it over safely to the other side. The real question that comes to mind however is how did they get in the middle of the road to begin with?
