Koohii stories:
1) [skinnyneo] 11-10-2007(167): During a traffic jam it is impossible to get your car to enter the roadway as it is crowded with cars. Think of a grid lock so bad cars are litterally scraping up against each other like people on a Japanese train during rush hour.
2) [blaked569] 6-2-2009(148): Everybody tries to enter the road during rush hour. That's why it's so crowded.
3) [blueraccoon] 26-1-2009(36): There is a Japanese comedy skit where they play a trick on an unaware person who is walking down a quiet empty street. The trick is that a huge crowd suddenly enters the road and stampedes towards the person. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qb7zwr3vQKo (thanks, decals).
4) [bigspenderJ] 13-3-2007(15): Don't enter the main roads in Tokyo on weekdays… they are CROWDED.
5) [dingomick] 17-12-2007(9): It's so crowded that even stepping into the road doesn't relieve the problem. ('These Crowded Streets'; Dave Matthews Band).
