Thursday morning might mark the first time a New Jersey commuter preferred to be in a “cash lane.”
The East Rutherford Police Department said an armored truck spilled cash along the westbound lanes of Route 3 at about 8:30 a.m. — right during the peak of the morning rush hour.
The incident took place near Metlife Stadium, right outside of New York City.
In videos posted to social media, motorists can be seen leaving their cars as they scramble to grab the cash from travel lanes.
