A bizarre and unexpected sight recently captured the attention of Malaysians after a video went viral on TikTok, showing a group of cows calmly occupying a lane on a busy road.
Uploaded by TikTok user @volvobyfadli, the dashcam footage, taken on May 7, shows a group of cows lounging in the rightmost lane of a road connecting Subang Jaya to Glenmarie. The uploader, who encountered the unusual scene during his morning commute, captioned the video: "It looked like the cows were chilling by the roadside between Subang Jaya and Glenmarie."

The video reveals around eight cows of varying colors and sizes sitting comfortably, seemingly unbothered by the passing traffic. Thankfully, drivers on the road were not speeding and managed to avoid the unexpected roadblock, preventing what could have been a serious accident.
The footage left many social media users stunned, as such a sight is unheard of in the urban area of Subang Jaya. Comments quickly flooded in, with some users humorously suggesting that the cows may have gotten lost while on their way to the mosque for the upcoming korban (sacrificial) ritual.
However, not all reactions were lighthearted. Several individuals noted that the incident had caused a traffic jam in the area, while others claimed the cows had been seen running alongside the road all the way to Shah Alam. Concerns were also raised about the location of the incident, as it reportedly occurred near a bend where accidents are known to happen due to slippery road conditions.
The viral moment has since sparked both laughter and worry online, highlighting not just the strange presence of cows in the city, but also the potential dangers of animals wandering onto busy roads.
