China sure knows how to do insane traffic.
With millions of Chinese motorists taking to the road at the end of the country's week-long National Day celebration, a few traffic headaches were probably to be expected.
But the gridlock that clogged the main highway into Beijing, the 50-lane-wide G4 Beijing-Hong Kong-Macau Expressway, on Oct. 6 was truly something else.
The expressway became congested with thousands of motorists after a new checkpoint caused traffic to merge down to 20 lanes, creating a bottleneck that backed up traffic for hours, according to The People's Daily.
It is estimated 750 million people, or half of China's population, will be on the move during the National Day celebration between Oct. 1 and 7, Xinhua News Agency reported, citing data released by the Transport Ministry.
