Bad traffic on the way to work? This will make you feel better....
 
9 Day in a traffic jam. Ouch!:doh: There was hell to pay for here in Sydney when there was a traffic jam that lasted 12 hours!

I remember a case that is sth like 2 years old when there was a huge delay on Polish east border. Trucks were waiting up to 6-7 days to leave Poland. And the opposition wanted to use that fact bcoz it was sth related with foreign policy etc, besides the government had more problems so in order to ease the tension near the border the minister responsible for the police ordered his men not to arrest and harass prostitutes "working" there to calm down the guys in the trucks.

I really have a hard time conceptualizing a traffic jam that lasts 9 days.

Good luck trying to squeeze aboard in peak hour! If you want to jump on my train tonight, you will get a seat, as I'll be running around at midnight!
