I think I speak for everyone when I say that traffic jams are the absolute worst.
There is nothing more infuriating than coming home from work or driving to an event like a game or a concert and seeing nothing but brake lights ahead.
If you’re anything like me, after the blinding rage wears off, you often wonder what caused the jam to begin with.
Usually, it’s because some idiot missed his exit and decided to merge across six lanes of traffic or a college kid who’s home on break was texting and driving before rear-endeding someone, but how about when a longhorn busts loose from the farm and leads the cops on a wild chase across a two-lane road?
What, you’ve never had that happen to you before?
MISSING 1200-POUND GIRAFFE GRACIE FOUND 2 WEEKS AFTER WANDERING AWAY FROM RANCH IN VIRAL SEARCH
It turns out several of the motorists in Putnam County, New York, were treated to a traffic jam of bovine origins when a four-year-old cow named Maggie caused a pileup when she escaped from the friendly confines of Little Cabin’s Farm in nearby Carmel, NY.
The video is absolutely hysterical (mostly because I’m not the one behind the wheel) and features police cars and civilians alike trying (and failing) to wrangle the clearly agitated animal as she darts in between several stopped vehicles.
One of the civilians is even seen brandishing a tree branch to use as a whip to try and corral Maggie back onto the other side of the road.
While traffic is at a dead stop in the one lane, the oncoming lane has cars driving at full speed, and one of them even had to slam on their brakes as Maggie scampered back to the grassy shoulder.

She’s lucky some Kia didn’t turn her into ground beef!
According to local news affiliate WABC, Maggie was on the loose for four days before finally being brought home, giving drivers all over Putnam County a reason to breathe easier.

What’s even crazier is that Maggie is also pregnant, which might explain some of her erratic behavior.
All’s well that ends well, though, and it’s nice to know she’s back on the farm where she belongs.
