Count yourself lucky you’ve never experienced this. A snowstorm in Japan caused, what might have been one of the world’s longest traffic jams, coming in at roughly 40 hours! 40 hours stuck inside your car! That would be a pretty crummy way to spend 40 hours. IF you’ve got passengers they can at least nap or doze off, but the driver has gotta remain alert and vigilant in case you can move ever so slightly.
Thanks to a snowstorm it was a stuck car in the middle of a highway that brought things to a standstill. Over 1000 people were stuck over a 15km stretch. That doesn’t seem like that long of a stretch, but think 12th and Victoria in Brandon to just past the Brandon Municipal Airport. I wouldn’t wanna wait in a line that long for anything. That’s a brutal traffic Jam. 40 hours with thousands of people probably honking their horns, moving ever so slightly forward and just experiencing the worst kind of road rage. I wouldn’t wish that on anyone.
