With a recent version of Internet Explorer?

It's a 16-frame animation loop with very obvious motion.  The whole screen
is supposed to be covered with moving traffic waves, as the individual
cars all make their jerky way from left to right across the screen.  It's
similar to the animation at http://amasci.com/traf/

I just tried Mozilla, and it works too.   I know that older browsers don't
animate your background GIF,  which has probably been a good thing; lurid
website backgrounds are bad enough without letting people make them move
and blink.   Very early on, Netscape removed the <blink></blink> command,
and browser standards followed suit.
