What is that I see crossing the road in peak hour Singapore?

I’ve seen many strange things on the roads through the years, but this evening driving in the peak hour along Hougang Avenue 3, I had to do a double take. Sometimes, life can become a real joke!

Why did the Chicken cross the road?

Could it really be? Yes, if you zoom in that photograph, you will see it is really a chicken, miraculously managing to cross the quadruple lane road directly in front of cars and a double decker bus into the central divider. A brave chicken indeed, perhaps fleeing from being on the dinner plate in a nearby restaurant. It’s so rare to see a live chicken anywhere in Singapore nowadays, let alone finding one jaywalking across a busy intersection in peak hour.

I wish the chicken all peace and happiness in the world but I really wonder how long his escapade will last.
