Motorists on the E314 motorway at Bekkevoort in Flemish Brabant could hardly believe their eyes on Tuesday morning when a bull crossed the road in front of them. Amazingly the escaped farm animal was not injured and is now back in its barn.
The bull had wandered onto the eastbound carriageway of the E314. A trucker Geert Cuypers was driving his lorry on the motorway at the time told VRT News that “ I tried to position my truck so that the animal would not cross the motorway, but it walked on calmly between the cars."
"Meanwhile, a traffic jam had formed, but the bull was just walking on between the cars. Needless to say, the animal attracted a lot of attention”.
The Highways Police arrived at the scene, but by then the animal had disappeared and the traffic jam was gone. VRT News has been told that the animal is now back on the farm where it lives and safe and sound in its barn.
