Commuters were stuck in a 50-lane traffic Jam on a Chinese Highway following a holiday weekend recently.

The unbelievable traffic congestion occurred on the Beijing–Hong Kong–Macau Expressway, near the Hong Kong border.

In addition, millions of travelers were also returning home from holiday vacations, which added to the chaos.

So next time your stuck on Interstate 35, just remember things could be much much worse.
