For Boltar to pontificate based upon his assessment of an accident
scene having just driven past it long after it occurred is stupid.

But I still have this uneasy question... if it was that long after the
accident, why were almost all the lanes still closed?

Note, this is a quite different question to "why did they need to close
lanes immediately after the accident".
