You never know what's going to disrupt Atlanta's traffic. On May 16, 2018, a tractor-trailer hauling 19 cows overturned on I-75 South in Cobb County at 5 a.m., killing seven of the animals. The surviving 12 roamed the highway until crews could herd them to the side as the crash was cleaned up. The wreck closed traffic until 7 a.m. (John Spink / jspink@ajc.com)
