What we do in a Monsoon traffic jam?

The monsoons bring with it traffic jams that hold us up for longer than any of us anticipate. Here are a few things all of us do during a traffic jam.
You pull out your smartphone and tweet about it or post it on Facebook. Some of us express anger and disgust while others get down to complaining about lack of Monsoon preparedness on the government�s part.
Many just lay back and snore away for a while. Excessive and desperate honking will wake you up once the mess clears up.
How do you escape the madness around you? Close your eyes, take a deep breath, hold it for a while, and exhale slowly. Keep doing it for a while and think about that spiritual stuff you read somewhere. Meditate your way out of a traffic jam if you will. It usually helps you relax and bites time.
A traffic jam is the best place to take calls. You sound busy even though you have nothing to do. Also, you�re more patient because you�ve probably given up on the traffic clearing up anytime soon. So go ahead and call that annoying person and be done with it.
The rear-view mirror is an asset in every way. Even if you�re driving skills are limited and you hardly use it, the rear view mirror can be used as a dressing table mirror. Girls stuck in a traffic jam obviously want to look good while they�re stuck there. Thus the occasional adjusting of the mirror and a few touch-ups.
You sit there pondering over environmentalists and the global call for improvement in public transport. You work your way up to climate change issues and when the traffic clears up, you steam ahead in full-throttle, wasting the goods.
