説明

A motorcycle crashed head-on with a uniquely Indian hazard - a herd of cows wandering along the road.
The bike was carrying two pillion passengers on the back when it came face-to-face with the animals in Dwarka, Gujarat, on December 17.
CCTV captures the cattle trotting out from an alleyway into the back street just as the rider was approaching.
Unable to stop in time, he pulled the brakes but slammed into one of the bovines and all three men on the bike fell to the ground.
None of the group were hurt and the cow untangled itself from the vehicle before casually walking away with its herd.
A resident who witnessed the cattle crash said: 'Me and all my neighbours are increasingly worried and distressed by the growing danger of stray animals in the area.'
India has hundreds of thousands of cows roaming its streets.
It is party due to devout locals who follow Hindu customs, with cows regarded as sacred animals that cannot be eaten or slaughtered once they have stopped producing milk. The majority of states ban the sale or slaughter of cows.
Instead of dealing with the economic burden of keeping their spent cattle, many farmers let the beasts roam the streets - leading to chaos when the animals become agitated and turn their fury on humans.
