Well, it's not actually - not if it's stuck in a mega-traffic jam on the M4.
In sweltering heat.
So what do you do?
You get a football out and have a kickabout.
OK, so it could potentially distract emergency vehicles sweeping down that carriageway en route to the lorry fire that caused the tailback and probably added a couple of degrees to the heat. But emergency vehicles tend to be very noisy things that you can see from a distance giving you time to pick up the ball and clear off to the side of the road like we had to when we were children and a car came along.
I don't see the problem myself. The BBC reports Inspector Mark Freeman of Wiltshire Police not being very happy though.
The only thing missing from this for me, is more drivers and passengers from other vehicles joining him for a proper match. Like Christmas in the Trenches in World War One. Paul McCartney could have written a song about it.
