A photo of a car covered in rubber ducks has gone viral on social media, with people sharing their theories about why the bath toys are being left on vehicles

Motorists across the UK are left puzzled as the peculiar trend of randomly finding rubber ducks on their cars is spotted more frequently. A social media craze seems to be behind the occurrence, particularly among Jeep owners, as evidenced in a viral post on social platform X, with quizzical Jeep owners sharing images of their vehicles adorned with the bath toys.

However, the true reason behind the duck decor is much less scandalous. As one enlightened user explained, "If a jeepster sees another jeep that they like they put a duck on it. It's a club thing and apparently we aren't in it." Some have cheekily suggested that the seemingly innocent child's toy might be used by drivers for more dubious reasons, even hinting at it being a sort of mating signal. One individual remarked: "Some hottie told me she liked my ride and it needed a duck. So it stays on my centre console until someone steals it LOL", reports the Mirror.
