Video shows cow tumble from truck onto Birmingham highway

It was a startling string of moo-ving violations.

Wild dashcam video shows a cow tumbling from a large blue truck onto the middle of a busy highway in England.

The breathtaking Tuesday tumble on a stretch of a highway in West Midlands County near Birmingham was then repeated about two miles later when a second cow fell off the truck, police said.

The two bewildered bovines ended up wandering among cars and trucks, forcing stunned motorists to swerve in order to avoid striking them.

For the cows, the steaks were high as the vehicles on M6 were zooming by at speeds of 70mph.

A large truck was filmed coming to an abrupt stop as the first cow rolled onto the roadway.

Both animals were injured in the stunning tumbles, police said.

Kenny Rogers, whose dashboard camera captured the first bovine breakaway, was driving to an auction when he narrowly avoided colliding head-on with a cow sprawled on the road.

 “You don’t see that every day,” he told Daily Mail. “My first thought was not to hit it.”

Rogers said he managed to swerve onto the shoulder of the road and out of harm’s way.

“It was a complete surprise. When I safely could, I messaged my wife and said ‘I’ve nearly been hit by a falling cow on the motorway,’” the driver said. “She didn’t believe me. I can’t think why.”

One of the injured cows was later photographed standing on the road with blood streaming down its legs.

“We have two injured cows in the carriageway two miles apart that have fallen from a lorry,” the Central Motorway Police Group tweeted at the time of the incident. “Both southbound and northbound closed whilst we try get the injured cows off the motorway safely. Last thing we want is for them to bolt into moving traffic.”

A portion of the roadway remained closed in both directors for about 90 minutes near the town of Walsall while first responders, aided by good Samaritans, worked to herd the farm animals to safety.

A spokesperson for a company that volunteered to cart the cows away from the scene said the animals did not suffer life-threatening injuries and were said to be “fine,” reported The Sun.
