Subject: gapers' block



In Chicago, a traffic slowdown caused by drivers slowing to look at an

accident in the opposite lane, or some other sight (currently a portrait of

Dennis Rodman of the Chicago Bulls, changing hair color as Rodman does) - is

called a "gapers' block."



Is that term used elsewhere? If not, what?



Thanks - Allan Metcalf
