Why did the turtle cross the road? We don’t know but he made it safely to the other side thanks to a member with Yarmouth Municipal RCMP.

Cst. Kyle Longmire was on patrol when he saw the turtle on the centre line of Hwy 101. Although committing an offence under Section 125(5) of the Motor Vehicle Act (crossing roadway outside of crosswalk zone and failing to yield to traffic), Cst. Longmire decided to issue a warning this time, even helping the little guy cross the road to avoid being hit by motorists. The turtle was overjoyed to receive a warning only and quickly scampered away upon release. #roadsafety
