Duckling crossing causes world’s cutest traffic jam (with video)



KATHMANDU: When 45 ducklings cross a road in Biddeford, Maine, to get to the other side, created the cutest traffic jam ever.

A video of a mother duck getting her 45 feather-babies to the other side of a five-lane road on August 8 did the rounds on social media, making hearts melt online.

According to a report by news website News Center Maine, the incident took place at 8am on Alfred Road, as people made their morning commute to work.

In a two-minute long video, 45 ducklings, in two groups, stopped lanes of drivers in both directions. These mighty ducklings formed a single file and followed their mother across the road, completely oblivious to the traffic jam being caused because of them.

Almost 20 cars waited patiently for the birds to get to a pond located on the other side of the road. The cars even waited for two stragglers that fell behind from the group.
