Bad driving habbits

I rarley make the drive up and down I-15, as I ussally brave HWY 78 instead. But Friday I had to make that dreadful drive. Now I have to admitt, I do enjoy looking at all the construction going on, on that corridor. I always try to figure out where those bridges are leading to, you know, the ones they're building in the center of the freeway. Moslty I think I have it figured out now. But I digress....So it's about 3:00pm Friday afternoon. Traffic is just starting to start. Not real bad yet, but it was slow. When suddenly I noticed ahead of me, a man was trying to run into the freeway lanes. I was in the second lane from the left shoulder. No one was letting him out there. I was maybe 5 or 6 cars away from him at this point. I figured he must have dropped something off of his truck, and now he was trying to retreive it. But I couldn't see what he was after. Then when the cars ahead of me got out of the way, I saw a staled truck with his hood up in the middle of the freeway. This man was trying to help push this truck off the road. No one would let him. Nope, evreyone on that road was to busy to stop so he could get his truck out of the street. They couldn't stop let alone help push the truck. So in the mean time, traffic is becoming slower and slower behind the staled truck, because there is a lane blocked. Well I decided that I would block traffic with my truck, until the staled truck could be moved. Much to my amazment peolpe sqeezed around me. I was streched across 3 lanes of traffic. They decided to use the shoulder to get around me. Finally traffic stopped. However there was a hill they were trying to push this truck up. I finaly jumped out and helped them get the truck out of the raod.
I never cease to be amazed at how selfish people can be. If you'r to lazy to get out and help, then the least you can do is stop and wait, for the staled truck to be moved. He didn't want to be helplessy stuck in the middle of a freeway. Remeber that the longer a lane is blocked, the worse traffic is going to back up behind it. Sure you may get home qucikly, but the people behind you won't.
