So you're driving...
...
and you notice a Mother Duck leading all her cute little fluffy ducklings across the road.... very sloooowly. So what would you do? Stop, get out and carry them across? Stop until they are all safely across? Frighten them across with your horn? Keep on driving as if they aren't there, and it's their fault if they get run over? Go another route? Umm, I'd probably stop and wait for them to cross.. but how about you? |
Stop and wait for them to cross. Im not an animal you know. Well, I am, but im not evil.
|
The first option is ridiculous.
The second one takes a while. The third one will get someone to follow you to a gas station and beat you up (seriously, this does happen rarely). The fourth one might be against the law. The fifth option is the only safe one there. |
I'm assuming this is an isolated country road with nobody else around.
I'd stop, get out and kick them off the road, with a modest appliance of force of course, and only if they don't move off faster when I initially get out. Trying the horn wouldn't occur to me until after doing this, funnily enough. |
First or second options, depending on how much time I have left to get to where I want to go and how much ducks there are.
|
I''l jump my across them, cause you see i'm a master driver. Otherwise i'd just run the car over it's not my fault aren't they supposed to be at the lake at this time...?
|
I would wait!
Of course I would, maybe even take some pictures! XD Ducks are cuuuuute. ~ |
I'd probably invite my friends over at home.
Roasted duck for dinner! |
Um, option A and B are what I'll do. Well, it depends if I have the time. If not, then I'll just take another route.
|
I'd wait for them to cross, since I couldn't dream of running them over, and I might frighten them if I tried to help them cross. So yeah, I'd stop and wait.

I would stop. I wouldn't want to run anything over. I would be very safe and let them cross.

Only problem was they crapped everywhere. xD But seriously they're awesome, they quack and everything. :D |
Stop, tap on my emergency lights, and help them across if traffic permits.
I've done the same with turtles. XD |

2. No 3. Maybe 4. Maybe 5. No It's their fault they are in the road. |
Did it ever occur to you, to simply go around . . . ?
>_>; |
Ha ha ha, my sister and I have run into a situation like this before but with Peacocks instead. We just wait until they cross the road, and if they won't budge we'll try to coax them out of the road.
|
I could NEVER run over the poor ducks with the car, especially considering the baby ducks. You all wouldn't like it if you got hit with a Monster Truck (which is a like a car to the ducks), so you shouldn't hit the ducks. Heartless bastards. I'd just wait for them to cross. |
I'd drive around them. If they're going that slowly, then they shouldn't be too hard to swerve around. You could argue that there's traffic, but you know what? If you say that there's traffic, then I say that the lanes next to me were easy to get onto. Or here's a guy in front of me who ran them over. Whatever floats your boat. XDDD
But I'd never let little ducks get hurt. Ever. ;; |
if its a bad day i run them over..
stop and honk my horn...but that might just make them scatter all over the road.... then i run them over |
Honk my horn. If that doesn't work...throw food on the other side of the road. x D
|
It seriously all depends on what is going on around me. If another car has just swerved out of the way and I am either forced to hit them or risk crashing, I'd probably run them over, even if that's morbid. I'm afraid my life is much more important than a few ducks...
If I have enough time to slow down and alert any drivers behind me that I am stopping, then I will do so. But I won't risk my life or any other driver's life for any animal. Just today, I was able to safely slow down in enough time to not let a tumbleweed crash into the front end of my car. So that was a nice thing. XD; |
I would most likely stop until they are safely across. I don't think I would go as far as to get out of the car and help them, but I wouldn't run them over or honk either...
|
the only legal option around my driving area is options 2 and 5. Since I'm encountering this situation, option 5 is automatically discounted, thereofre the only course of action left is option 2. Stop and wait. If I'm on my way to work I usually pull out my cell and call in to work that I'm stopped up, though I won't tell them why.
|
Stop and honk at them hurry up!
