What would you do if you were driving along the highway and saw a group of helpless ducklings on the side of the road as their mother lay dead after being hit by a car? Any sensible person would pull over safely in the center median to rescue the helpless ducklings of which three more suffered the fate of their mother after wandering into the road to see what was wrong with her. Good Samaritan Hallie Bibeau from Newfields New Hampshire did just that and alerted authorities by calling 911. To her credit, she managed to save 2 out of the 5 ducklings and possibly avoided a major car pile up on the freeway by drivers trying to avoid the surviving ducklings. However, when law enforcement showed up, they made matters worse by not helping and actually giving Hallie a ticket! This just proves once again that law enforcement needs better standardized training across the country and to decriminalize good Samaritans like Hallie Bibeau who will hopefully face a judge with a little more sense of judgment.
