Question: Describe a time when you were stuck in a traffic jam, and explain how you felt about this.
You can say:

  • when it happened
  • where you were going
  • how long you had to wait


Everybody hates traffic jams, but this is something unavoidable in city life. I happened to have a very bad experience of getting stuck in a traffic jam a few days ago.
It was Monday, and I was on my way home. It was just an ordinary day, but it took over two hours for me to get home. Without any reason, there was traffic congestion on the highway which I come home by every day. Then I had to wait for almost an hour until the traffic started to move. I had spent nearly two hours in the traffic. It was unbearable.
The feeling about the traffic jam was unpleasant. The traffic jam ruined my whole night. I didn’t do anything for the rest of the night. If there were no traffic jams, I would have gotten home in time. But it was not my day.
