Absolutely insane! hard to imagine really. I actually heard today that this traffic jam has impacted my company - we have a $2m shipment en-route from Beijing to Qiaodong that is 5 days overdue :o :o

Haha, Gotta love the ingenuity of local businesses - they should get the roadside sellers on the monash, could get breakfast while sitting in the car park at 7.30am. :D Not sure I'd pay $30 for a bottle of water tho
