Most parents teach their children to look both ways before crossing heavy traffic, but animals generally don’t play by the same rules.
The brief clip was filmed on the Tennessee and North Carolina state line on a mountainous road.
An adorable video posted on August 19 shows a mama bear make her way across a busy road with three of her cubs
In the video, the camera shows the little fur balls following their mom as she makes her way over a highway center divider.
The cars in the video are at a complete standstill as the four bears make their way safely across the road.
Mama bear makes her way across the center and continues on across the street, followed closely by two of her cubs.

One of the cubs struggles to keep up with its mother, but all of them eventually make it to the other side of the road
But the third cub comes some way behind and has some difficulty clearing the boundary between carriageways.
Eventually, the critter is able to hop across and join its mother so they continue on with their journey.
The clip ends with traffic resuming and a brief view of the last cub before it disappears into the surrounding forest.
