近日，在马鞍山市和县城区的一条马路上，一匹高头大马竟然在车流中飞奔，那场面，是相当的危险。
从路口的监控视频中可以看到，在和县城区历阳东路上，一名男子骑在一匹高头大马上，自西向东不断地挥舞着马鞭。在马路上飞奔，期间，甚至越过道路中间实线，逆向骑行，直至骑行到交通信号灯前，才逐渐放缓速度。随后男子调转马头，沿着斑马线，来回溜达。然后又将一辆正常左转的黑色私家车，逼停在路边，看到停在路当中的一匹高头大马，司机们纷纷减速避让。
由于男子在公路上遛马，严重影响了正常行车秩序，一名司机向警方报了警。接警后，和县交警迅速赶往事发地点，责令男子立即离开马路
据了解，由于男子喜欢骑马，就托人从外地，购买了这匹黑马。这段时间，马儿在家拴着太久，男子就想着将马儿骑到公路上来溜达溜达。通过民警的宣传教育，男子认识到了自己行为的不妥，表示今后一定注意安全，再也不将马匹骑到公路上了。（视频由安徽台提供）
