    Default 9 day traffic jam in China could last through September

    National Highway 110 from Bejing to Zhangjiakou have been backed up and moving about 10K a day since August 13 due to construction. The back up is predicted to last well into if not through September. Here's the NPR coverage with some pictures.

    Wow! That's just...wow. I suppose you'd get ticketed if you abandon your vehicle.

    It's a perfect occupation for me.

    Saw this on you FB Rhonda. Just seems unreal. Impressive that there has been no violence or road rage. I hate to say it, but I bet people in this country wouldn't be so understanding.
