Larger view of the wreck. Also a bit more aftermath.

Watching the one guy get pushed by the truck in front, I didn't even notice the two passengers from within the stationary truck getting thrown from the vehicle...

Edit, no idea what happened to the driver of the White car that hit them. But it doesn't look good for them at all...

All the details about moving over to the other lanes are fine, but I'll bet anyone that the driver was distracted. Dunno about other places, but here in Canada, distracted driving took over from drinking as the #1 cause of accidents.

Yeah, this is much less a moving over problem and more of a pay fucking attention you jackass!, problem.

You can (and should) blame distracted drivers until you are blue in the face. But if you convince a hundred people to be more attentive, a thousand more distracted idiots will fall in line behind them.

I personally would (and do) take additional steps on a case by case basis, well beyond public service announcements.

I would rush - RUSH - to get cones set up in the blocked lane two hundred yards before the blockage. Set up at least a half a dozen cones so that they gradually close the lane as drivers approach, with the lane fully closed at least 50-100 yards before the blockage.

I don't see a single cone in the video.

Full credit for the crash goes to the white car driver. I agree, this case is not above moving over for emergency vehicles.
