Berlin - Is this the definition of a slow-moving hazard?
Blaming the whole 'family'
German police say a driver lost control of his car after slipping on a slimy trail left by a procession of snails that were making their way across the highway.
The car - an old East German Trabant - flipped over and was wrecked, but the driver was unhurt.
Police said the incident happened early on June 29 2016 near Paderborn, about 350km west of Berlin.
