It has long been said that eating carrots helps improve your eyesight.
But you would be forgiven for thinking you were seeing things if you drove the Waipahi Highway in the last 12 hours or so.
Hundreds of carrots lined the highway after a truck lost its load of vegetables.
Police said they received a report yesterday at about 12.15pm of a truck losing its load on State Highway 1 between Gore and Clinton, near the settlement of Arthurton.
"There were a lot of carrots strewn on the road," a police spokeswoman said.
