Ahead of this year’s Mid-Autumn Festival, the traditional lunar harvest festival in China, the traffic situation in many Chinese cities reportedly worsened, with authorities saying more people than ever were on the roads to deliver mooncakes to friends and family as dictated by tradition. In this cartoon, posted by artist Fan Jianping (范建平) to his blog at QQ.com, the roads of a bustling metropolis are backed up with vehicles shaped like traditional Chinese mooncakes () for the Mid-Autumn Festival.
