Vehicles collide as ducks cross Bennett Bridge

KELOWNA — It should be interesting to see how ICBC handles this one: two cars collided on the Bennett Bridge on Monday.

It was a rear-ender in the eastbound lanes involving a Jaguar and a small Honda, not far from the Campbell Road on-ramp.

The catch is, they didn’t cause the accident. Police say it was a chain-reaction crash and ducks were involved.

“It was a two-vehicle collision… a vehicle stopped for a family of ducks crossing the bridge, which caused another vehicle to stop and a third one to collide into the back of it,” says Cst. Wes Sundstrom with Kelowna RCMP.

The vehicle that stopped for the ducks kept going, as did the family of ducks.

No humans or ducks were injured in the incident.
