Why Did the Robot Cross the Road?

Posted on by Kolbe

No one likes traffic, but if you’ve read this blog, you’ll know there is one type of traffic we don’t mind. That’s traffic caused by crazy circumstances. Today’s insane traffic story comes from Russia, where a robot being assembled in a lab escaped after an engineer left a door open. Before its batteries died, the robot made its way into the middle of a busy street, where it stayed for forty minutes causing quite the traffic jam. Some people feel this wasn’t an accident, but rather a marketing stunt to gain attention for the robot. Regardless if it was a marketing ploy or a true runaway robot, no one was hurt, and it made for another good traffic jam story.
