Playful monkey troop caused a traffic standstill in southern China.

The video was filmed in Garze Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture in Sichuan Province on October 10.

These golden-furred monkeys play recklessly in the middle of the road, some even curiously climbing on top of the travellers' vehicles. The drivers had no choice but to wait until the free-spirited critters had their fun and left.

Chinese netizens have commented with humour that you never know what's going on in front of a traffic jam, and it's possible that the driver is enjoying a free view of the zoo.
