This was the cute moment a lorry driver near Preston, Lancashire slowed down from high speed to make sure a flock of ducklings could cross safely on Thursday (April 4).<br /><br />While driving the 44-ton lorry near junction 31 of the M6 in Fulwood, the driver steadily comes to a halt as the brood of infant ducks makes their way across the busy road.<br /><br />The filmer said: "I noticed a Mallard duck attempting to cross the road with her newly hatched baby chicks.<br /><br />"I slowed down and stopped hoping that no-one overtook me and no-one came from the opposite direction.<br /><br />"Luckily all went well and mummy duck and the baby ducks got across safely and hopped up the kerb and into the bushes to safety."
