    I wanted to pull over and help. I did see the two guys who were pulling the little trailers, (in the process of passing me) pull over and jump out and some other people were pulling over in the eastbound side too. Combine that with the skinny little bridge my option to pull over would have been right there before the bridge or on the bridge or after the bridge. There was a lot of traffic at speed at the time and did not want to stop and cause more crashes behind me. There was enough help right there on scene plus there were fire police ambulance rolling eastbound and I'm sure rolling westbound behind me without me parking and possibly causing more problems than solving.

    I just posted the video as there is always something to learn from watching it.

    Notice the natural reactions of the guy to your left as starts to veer off into your lane.

    Also I wanted to ask if that shot was taken of I-5. Kinda looks likethe Lodi area or farther towards Williams.
