- last year
A driver caused a car crash in Florida after stopping in the middle of the road to let a turtle cross the highway.
“We all can do better to protect the wildlife and natural inhabitants of our great state. Residents and visitors alike should marvel at the many species that call Florida home,” Walton County Sheriff’s Office wrote, sharing a video of the incident on social media.
“Just preferably not in the middle of the road. We don’t advise causing a road obstruction because of a reptilian obstruction.”
Police also confirmed no one suffered serious injuries, despite the driver causing a “chain reaction affecting multiple vehicles”.
