Lobsters spilled onto expressway

Five traffic accidents in under a month were recently reported on a section of the Hanyi Expressway. Coincidentally, all five accidents involved vehicles transporting crayfish, with the crustaceans spilling out onto the road as a result. Netizens discussing the accidents referred to the section of the highway as the Chinese equivalent of the Bermuda Triangle, where a number of aircraft and ships are said to have disappeared under mysterious circumstances.
