Neither could this baby girl Monday morning during rush hour.

Sathya Priya Senthil began experiencing contractions around 6:30 a.m., the New York Post reports

She and her husband took an Uber from Jersey City to a Midtown hospital and, when they were about 500 yards away from the entrance of the tunnel, Senthil's water broke.

The baby was ready -- more than two weeks before her May 10 due date.

Two Port Authority police officers delivered the baby girl at 7:30 outside of the tunnel before the mother and baby were transported to Hoboken University Medical Center, the article says.
