Ducks crossing road cause three-car pile-up in Dunedin
A 47-year-old woman stopped ''to allow ducks to cross on the road'’ on Kaikorai Valley Rd on Saturday evening, police say.
A following motorist, a 55-year-old man, failed to see the stopped vehicle – and presumably the ducks – and rear-ended the woman's vehicle.
Not to be outdone, a third vehicle – driven by another 55-year-old man who was busy looking at a crashed car from earlier that morning – rear-ended the second car.
The motorists were unhurt in the pile-up but the status of the ducks, and their reason for crossing the road, remain unclear.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
