I seriously hope someone had a video camera with them. Seeing the J-Cops running around trying to herd up the chicks would definitely make my night.

...and then got rear-ended by another truck about 10 minutes later and overturned... Somebody was sleeping, I guess...

Monoflow. You got it man! Asleep is always to fast and too close! This accident could have been a bus load of kids! I don't find this article in any way amusing, perhaps as JT intended it to be.

Lets forget about road safety issues here. All have a good laugh about chicks and cops running around!

I can just imagine the J-cops wondering if they should shoot he chicks just to get a bit of use from their service pistols, other than suicide, of course.

They were all poor chicks anyway - likely destined to a short, nasty life in a cramped cage on a shelf in a windowless shed, before being hung upside down on a conveyor belt, strangled and dipped in hot water.

but for a good cause, I like chicken.

It would have made a great paintball shootout.

I don't think what happened to the driver was funny at all, but it WOULD definitely be funny to see the J-cops running around trying to catch the chicks. I think it would be funny to watch anyone doing it, for that matter.

‘‘We collected the chicks as quickly as possible as there was a danger that drivers could be distracted,’’ More like they are worried about losing money if the poor chicks escape.
