Progressive Highway Crash

I agree - Hazards would've prevented this. Something I learned driving on the Autobahn; as soon as you have to change speed significantly, just pop the hazards on. Ironically, the hardest part is finding the damn thing in a rush. So I recommend practicing.

This kind of video drives me mad - what was that first guy DOING? Hazards, and GET OFF THE ROAD with your fleshy ass! Holy shit!

 

Also, you want to talk about nightcrawler? Notice that this guy waits and calls it in only AFTER he gets his multi-car pile up for the footage. Maybe the reality in LA is that no one responds until it's multiple vehicles and he's just living the reality of that, so don't want to just assume he's scum.

i think the hazard lights are on, but the spotlight masked them. after the car spun around, you can see the front lights on. the rear right lights are broken.

 

in the daytime when visibility is good, i don't slow down much when i see cars on the shoulder. but at night with poor lighting, i slow down as i get closer. could be debris in the road even if the cars are fully on the shoulder.
