On Monday, state media reported that a traffic jam stretching more than 100km on a major national expressway leading northwest from Beijing had entered its ninth day of virtual standstill.Perhaps we're a little harsh on the M25, eh?
Road works along the Beijing-Tibet Expressway have been exacerbated by traffic accidents and broken-down cars and traffic has backed up from the outskirts of Beijing all the way into Inner Mongolia.
Beijing’s traffic management bureau said the monster traffic jam, which is often replicated on a smaller scale throughout the country, is expected to last for nearly a month.

The trouble with a Chinese traffic jam is you always want another one half an hour afterwards.
