That’s one way to beat the traffic.

An unidentified man in Kazakhstan took fellow commuters by surprise as he was caught on dashcam sprinting through traffic atop an ostrich, Anna Kooiman and Jackie Ibanez reported on Fox and Friends First.

The video, posted to YouTube, shows the man and ostrich racing up the shoulder of a highway before a merge, passing car after car.

Suddenly, the ostrich darts left and weaves through traffic until he is out of sight. The flightless birds can reach speeds as high as 45 mph, which can be quite helpful in this man’s case, when stuck in gridlock.
