Running into rush hour traffic on Ashley Phosphate Road  would normally be a very bad idea, that is, unless you're a cow that's headed to a slaughterhouse. 

The Post and Courier has a serious news report on the rather odd  story (read it here) and NBC News 2 has some lackluster raw video from the scene (see that here).
