See above. You cannot possibly *know* what is going on at an
accident scene from merely driving slowly past it.

All right then - from your years of experience tell me why they'd
close almost the entire road for a simple collision with the street
furniture.


I was not there and I was not dealing with it so I don't know - and
neither do you.


So much for your years of experience then if you can't even come up
with a few guesses.


I have given some guesses - but, of course, they are based upon your
description of the crash that I cannot rely on. For example - were you in
full view of the accident scene while you were waiting? If not then you
cannot assume that the truck was the only vehicle involved can you? It may
be that other vehicles were blocking the other lanes and you only began
moving once they had been removed.
