RIO DE JANEIRO (Reuters) - Brazil's federal highway police said on Thursday that there is no more "abnormality" in the flow of traffic on the nation's highways, indicating that an 11-day truckers' protest has essentially concluded.

Brazil's truckers began a nationwide protest 11 days ago demanding lower fuel prices, blocking highways across the country and wreaking havoc with the economy.
