While stuck in standstill traffic UK motorists got out of their cars to buy ice cream from an ice cream van.

The clip, filmed on July 11, shows people running back to their cars to get money before queuing up to buy ice cream to cool down in the heat.

"Stuck on the M25 with traffic at a standstill Mr Whippi opened up and kept us all busy eating ice cream until all of a sudden the traffic jam was cleared and we were able to go," the filmer Ellie told Newsflare.
