Motorway traffic was brought to a standstill after a herd of ELEPHANTS crossed the road

This is the moment motorway traffic was brought to a standstill after a herd of ELEPHANTS crossed the road.

The family - including a number of baby elephants - wandered on to the highway on its way to the forest.

They all collected on the four-lane route after the babies struggled to get over the barricades, leaving baffled drivers with no choice but to wait.
