Turtle crossing road causes 3-car crash in New JerseyBy Natalie O'Neill

They were on a highway to shell.
A turtle caused a three-car crash when a considerate Cape May, New Jersey, driver stopped to let it inch across the road — and triggered a chain of rear-endings, officials said.
The driver hit the brakes while motoring in Stone Harbor — a well-known hub for sea turtle nesting and street crossings — on Tuesday to avoid crushing the slow-moving critter, fire officials said in a Facebook post.
The car behind the vehicle then slammed into it, and a third car crashed into both of them, according to a Facebook post from Stone Harbor Volunteer Fire Company No. 1.
All three of the cars were badly damaged on Stone Harbor Boulevard, but nobody was injured.
