Roadblocks halted traffic on many of Brazil's throughways as truck drivers protested the election defeat of outgoing President Jair Bolsonaro.

Truckers supporting the far-right incumbent against left-wing former President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva blocked roads across the country after Bolsonaro lost Sunday night's elections in a tight race.

Spreading across the country, the protests began on Sunday when a small number of drivers blocked highways with their vehicles after Lula's victory with 50.9% of the vote compared to Bolsonaro's 49.1%, according to Brazil's Supreme Electoral Court.

This video shows a protest by truck drivers that took place on November 2 in Barueri, Sao Paulo, Brazil.
