Congestion
For Once, Traffic Caused by Something Worth Looking at

The drivers edging past a car wreck on a Manhattan highway weren't the only ones crawling. The car was carrying dozens of snakes to a reptile show when something went awry Saturday morning, said driver Sean Casey. The man said he lost control of the station wagon, swerved to avoid running into other cars and hit a highway wall. Then he noticed flames coming out of his car engine. Fearing for the snakes, lizards and turtles in tanks in the back of the car, he grabbed the tanks and set them on the highway wall. He wrapped the tanks in blankets to keep the cld-blooded creatrues warm while firefighters put out the flames. No reptiles were hurt. (AP)


Awww! WE never have a traffic jam of that kind!
