Drivers were accompanied by a loose horse galloping down the highway, WPVI reported.

It happened about 4:45 a.m., so luckily there wasn’t much traffic at the time, since morning rush hour hadn’t yet started, KYW reported.

Police don’t think that the horse got out of a trailer, instead, they believe it escaped from a riding club in the city, WPVI reported.

The horse was eventually captured in another part of the city and wasn’t hurt.
