A viral video is warming hearts worldwide.
The video shows a busy motorway in New Zealand coming to a halt to allow a duck and her babies cross the road safely.
People have been praising the patience of commuters and their relief that the little family got across safely.
SH1 NORTHERN MWY, SOUTHBOUND - 7:45AM
Please allow a little extra time citybound on the Northern Mwy this morning with minor delays due to ducks crossing near Tristram Ave. NZ Police are now escorting all to safety. ^TP #becauseitsfriday #nocrashescaused pic.twitter.com/c38jB6lhV5— NZTA Akld & Nthlnd (@NZTAAkl) August 23, 2018

Quite possibly the only worthwhile traffic jam in history. https://t.co/YOxEwiuaKd

Extremely good that three lanes of traffic stopped for the ducks, and all three waited until they made it across ❤❤❤ https://t.co/Kii8INNRrp
