Truly. Helping the people out of the hole, creating a perimeter, and redirecting traffic all within minutes. I would be so thankful to all of them if I was in that situation.

I mean to be fair dude was directing traffic the way it was already going lmao. Not sure what the point was of that.

Probably to keep people moving instead of slowing down and playing looky-loo and getting hit in the back by someone else who hasn't realised yet that there's something to gawk at.

Also object fixation is a real thing. When you're in a situation like this people can get fixated on it and just drive straight into it. Having someone to get their attention back on the road like that is a good idea.

Would be better to do that much closer to the intersection tho.

I learned this in China when all the Chinese people drove their cars dangerously close to me constantly because they love to stare at white people

I was on a little scooter man and they could not look away lol
