Round ’em up: New Zealand professor becomes ‘traffic conductor’ in southwest China

Videos have surfaced online of a foreign university professor in southwest China directing traffic at the centre of a busy intersection, yelling “get out of the way”.

The viral video running 3 minutes 25 seconds shows the man leaping in front of moving cars and banging on their hoods, loudly directing multiple cars to “turn right!” and telling them, “no!”

Bruce, as he is identified in a report by local newspaper Guizhou Du Shi Bao, is a professor from New Zealand who teaches at the Guizhou University of Finance and Economics in the provincial capital, Guiyang.
