What’s causing traffic jams

This is time lapse webcam looking at the heavy loaded traffic roundabout in the center of Romanian capital city of Bucharest. Some bright minded guy on the SUV wanted to save a couple of seconds trying to overtake the stream driving by the tram line. Bad luck! He has lost a couple of hours and blocked the trams. I won’t be surprised at all if he was beaten by the trams’ passengers.
