Default I5 South accident on traffic cams.

I always think it's really cool when the incident is within the view of the city/county traffic cameras.

There is a car accident on I5 SB at the 520 interchange near Roanoke. I don't think it's that exciting of an incident, but it's a good example of how cool technology is.

Here is the traffic cam link, it updates every minute and a half. (This camera is in the median of I5, facing north.)


Here's a few screenshots of the first responders.

Is that why the engines are sitting diagonal?

That's exactly why. So if some dumb *** isn't paying attention they will run into the engines, and deflecting off of them, and not into the accident scene.
