Campaign Reminds Drivers That Road Workers are “Sitting Ducks”

As the state’s economy begins to open up, more traffic are seen on the road. To remind drivers to slow down and keep workers safe, the Minnesota Safety Council has enlisted Ben Afquack, Minnesota’s top duck and Instagram star. Ben Afquack, known as the “Minnesota Duck,” and his human, Derek Johnson, volunteered to appear in the series of “sitting duck” public service videos, photos, and social media posts to remind drivers to slow down and pay attention.
