Default Stuck in a Jam for 4 hours.

Some friends of mine were stuck in a Traffic Jam for 4 hours due to the flooding in some areas of the UK.

What survival tips would you pass on to someone who was stuck in traffic for a long period of time? What if you needed the loo? What about being desprately hungry or thirst? Have you ever been stuck in traffic for a LONG time?

Quite simply, bring lots of a food and drink, take a wizz in the drink bottle and a number 2 in the empty packet of crisps im assuming you brought. As far as entertainment goes, throw the now disturbing pieces of rubish at other people. See how i managed to link everything together nicely?

So if I'm ever stuck in a jam near me and you offer me some orange juice and a bag of crisps remind me to refuse them!!

ditched his porsche in traffic in the early hours and ran across a county border some 17 miles or something (cant remember) in a couple of hours, stopping once for a fag just to get back for his daughters birthday!
