A bizarre radar image from a speed trap in central Switzerland has revealed an unlikely culprit: a duck. The mallard was caught speeding at 52 kilometers per hour (32 miles) in a 30 km/h zone on April 13 in the town of Koniz, near Bern. Authorities were initially baffled by the image but soon discovered an even stranger twist.
It turns out that a similar-looking duck was caught in the exact same spot, going at the same speed, on the same date seven years earlier. Despite initial concerns that the story might be an April Fool’s joke or a doctored image, police confirmed the authenticity of the radar photos. The system used by the municipality is rigorously tested and calibrated annually by Switzerland’s Federal Institute of Metrology (METAS), ensuring that the images were genuine.
