Traffic Gridlock - What was the problem?

So this morning I'm in a tailback on a Bangkok road I'm not expecting a problem on. So what is causing it? I guess the large high-school further up the road has something on today like enrollment. (It's the school summer holidays here in Thailand.) I get as far the school and the traffic starts to move freely again. There's nothing going on at the school.

How many times does this happen? You try and guess what caused the problem. You blame whatever your driving pet hates are. Maybe an old lady driving in the outside lane; maybe an obnoxious taxi driver, but in the end you never know. It stays a mystery.
