Traffic Backups Can Be Irritating No Matter Where You Are

STEVE INSKEEP, HOST:

Good morning. I'm Steve Inskeep with world traffic news. Picton, Australia, suffered major delays when two drivers confronted each other on a one-lane bridge. Both felt they had the right of way. Neither yielded for half an hour.

Then there's the jam of runners in Allentown, Pennsylvania. A marathon was underway when a slow-moving freight train crossed the track at mile seven. Runners talk of hitting the wall but these runners had to stop to keep from hitting the train. It's MORNING EDITION. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.
