Panda-traffic

A grouping of vehicles (usually driving on a motorway) that has become 'stuck' precisely at the speed limit due to the presence of a police car travelling on the same road.

Whilst stuck in Panda-traffic, motorists' behaviour changes significantly, mainly due to temporarily no longer being able to break the speed limit. Motorists also become stuck in their lanes and generally behave more courteously compared with 'normal' traffic conditions (ie no police companion).

Journeys that incorporate a Panda-traffic encounter usually last significantly longer than they otherwise would.

Once the Police car has exited the motorway, normal driving conditions resume immediately.

Psychological traffic

Being stuck in pockets of slow moving traffic for no apparent reason.

I thought there was an accident on the road but there was nothing going on - so it must have been psychological traffic.

Stopping Traffic

An idiom that refers to a very attractive person. In most contexts, the negation of the word is used, usually to pin down someone who is moderately attractive but nothing mindblowing (see example)

Yeah man, she’s pretty cute. I mean she’s not stopping traffic or anything, but she’s definitely easy on the eyes.
