If you count carefully enough, you will see 14 red lights in the picture. There are 7 lanes for single direction. Isn't look funny?

Here are the Google Map of the area.

When I read your article title, I was sure you was speaking about the special "massage" place and the special "hair cutter" shop... in other word prostitution.
Which are numerous in China.
(I read somewhere it may represent up to 6% of China GDP)

Am I a colorful wolf ?

Ao this is shanghai. What a lovely city! 7 lanes in both direction doesn't seem to have any postive effect on this life-costing bumper-to-bumper nightmare.
