How did the ducks cross the road? With no problem. Thanks, New Zealand drivers

This might be the best traffic jam in the history of traffic jams.

It’s just plain ducky, in fact.

Watch as an Auckland traffic camera captures vehicles stopping along a busy highway to let a mother duck and her ducklings cross the road.

“Please allow a little extra time citybound on the Northern Mwy this morning with minor delays due to ducks crossing near Tristram Ave,” New Zealand’s Transport Agency tweeted during last Friday’s morning. “NZ Police are now escorting all to safety.”

Definitely, file under New Zealand.
