This couldn't be good...

When there is time on the interstate to put up signs that there is an accident ahead, it probably is not good....
This was about 3 miles before the accident

A lot of people moved over when the signs said "Left Lane Closed Ahead", but some people are more important and just ran right up the left lane.

Coming up to the merge

There was a tractor trailer that had gone off into the median - you can see the back of the trailer in the median. There were two tractors there (the one being towed by the other you can see facing us in the left lane). Then there was a really big heavy duty wrecker about to try to pull the tractor trailer back onto the roadway. I'm pretty sure they were going to have to close the road completely while that was attempted/completed - but we got through before that point.
All of this was in North Carolina a couple of days ago. We are comfortably ensconced on the farm in Virginia.
