Those going about their business on four wheels as normal one day last week got a little more than they bargained for in terms of the navigable hazards that present themselves on local roads, this time coming in the form of one on four legs.
上周的一天，那些像平常一样用四轮车做生意的人在当地道路上遇到的危险比他们预想的要多一点，这次是以四足车的形式出现的。
For there, in the middle of intense traffic, was a horse, in the equestrian distraction for drivers that took place on 1 March in Nanjing.
因为，在 3 月 1 日南京举行的马术比赛中，在繁忙的交通中，有一匹马。
Specifically, the “horse-before-the-cart” [apologies; Ed.] incident happened at the intersection of Dazhou Lu and Ningdan Lu in our City’s Yuhuatai District, to the west of Jiangning District’s Jiangjun Shan Scenic Area.
具体来说，“本末倒置”[抱歉；事件发生在我市雨花台区大周路与宁丹路交汇处，江宁区将军山风景区以西。
A report published that evening by The Paper included comment from a spokesperson for the 8th Division of the Nanjing Traffic Police Squad which was responsible for the handling of the incident.

She said, “We have the horse under control”. The officer then added that it had subsequently been handed over to the relevant departments.
她说：“我们已经控制住了马”。该官员随后补充说，该案件随后已移交给相关部门。
Yet, in a popular video posted online, horse enforcement was nowhere to be seen, as the mount happily trotted along the busy four-lane road.
然而，在网上发布的一段热门视频中，却看不到马匹执法，因为这匹坐骑沿着繁忙的四车道道路快乐地小跑。
The horse, being a species well known for its intelligence, also displayed a remarkable degree of road craft, perfectly utilising a U-turn lane for the purpose for which it was intended.
马是一种以其智慧而闻名的物种，它还表现出了非凡的道路技巧，完美地利用掉头车道来达到它的预期目的。
As a result, there is speculation among some it is possible that Nanjing’s finest deliberately held back in their approaches of the beast, not out of intimidation, but in order to give the horse more of an opportunity to set a good example to local drivers.
因此，一些人猜测，南京最优秀的选手可能故意在接近这头野兽时有所保留，不是出于恐吓，而是为了让这匹马有更多的机会为当地车手树立一个好榜样。
