Pregnant Woman Flips Car Trying To Avoid Ducks Crossing The Road
April 26, 2018
A young pregnant woman escaped serious injury Thursday when her vehicle overturned.
The accident happened on Rockaway Creek Road north of Nokomis Road. The driver reportedly stated that she was attempting to avoid ducks that were crossing the road on their way to a nearby pond. She lost control and ran off the roadway, with her vehicle flipping over in a ditch and coming to rest upside down.
The woman refused medical transport by Escambia County EMS and headed to the hospital in a private vehicle.
The accident is under investigation by the Florida Highway Patrol. The Walnut Hill Station of Escambia Fire Rescue and the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office also responded.

My husband has drilled into my head, “take the deer” rather than hurting myself or others. I love animals, but sometime you have to make a choice between people and animals. I am thankful this Mom and baby are both ok.
If it was me, i think the poor little duckies would have to go.. :/ glad they are ok, though!!
Thankfully they are both ok.
Praying for mom and baby
Thank god her and baby are ok
