Scary Driving

Kevy, I came up on a car like that - dark, crashed, in the center divider and the closest lane, at night. I saw something on the right shoulder which confused me. Turned out to be a person dressed all in black waving a tiny flashlight at cars (presumably to confuse them and slow them down). Glad to have a cell phone at that point.

Later that same drive I came up on a car stopped half on the right shoulder half in the right lane, on a connector from one freeway to another. Both had already been reported to CHP, but that's ok. As far as I know they were single-car incidents so nobody else got hurt.
