    This article is about a Caltrans vehicle being struck by a motorist, not a CMV.

    Caltrans is California's highway department, and as such they frequently stop on the shoulder.

    I guess for some people, the flashing lights are hypnotic and draws those people near.

    This is true.
    Massachusetts State Police had the same problem when their interceptors kept getting hit on the shoulder years ago. They put reflective chevrons on the back of the squad cars and changed some of the light patterns.
