It’s a good reminder that wide swaths of our country are very rural when tweets like this appear from accounts operated by the Ontario Provincial Police.
Motorists in the Vittoria area apparently moooved a cow from the middle of Highway 24 over the weekend. Located near the shores of Lake Erie about halfway between Hamilton and London, there is no shortage of wide open in that neck of the woods. It’d appear this bovine preferred the tarmac, however.

We like to think that these were the product of a bovine burnout, but acknowledge the alternate suggestion that they were left from a previous occasion in which a driver unleashed a decent amount of horsepower and turned their tires into paint brushes not approved by Bob Ross.
YOU never know what you may encounter when driving along the roadway. Good Samaritans removed a #Cow from #Hwy24 in Vittoria today. Please make sure you #drivesafe and always #PayAttention. A BIG #ThankYou to everyone that helped. @NorfolkCountyCA #NorfolkOPP ^es pic.twitter.com/z52DLSa0VQCops in the area thanked locals for helping to move the creature safely out of harm’s way, reminding drivers to drive safely and always pay attention.
Speaking of, we’ll have a post over the next few days about what to do as a driver if you happen upon a turtle that’s stuck in the middle of a roadway. Rural driving, indeed.
drivingdotca What do you expect from a 3legged cow anyways It's obvious that the poor thing was running too fast and spun out. Some old guy on a motorized chair was chasing it but that guy got away.
drivingdotca I’m no agricultural expert but that ain’t no cow.
drivingdotca I always figured they had posi-traction....
