An elderly woman in northern China unfazed by honks, performed Tai chi in the middle of a road.

The video was filmed in Harbin City in Heilongjiang Province on October 26.

A driver named Zhang caught in the unexpected stand-off was left with no choice but to surrender to the rhythm of her traditional martial arts display.

Zhang said that he honked the horn, hoping to remind the elderly woman to clear the way, but his efforts were met with a stoic disregard.

Zhang suggested that the woman was "taking advantage of her seniority," but he did not dare to conflict with her. So he had to wait silently.
