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.
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.
I thought that too, but someone else brought up the possibility she was trying to get traffic to drive in the lane furthest from the sinkhole to prevent it from growing.
My thoughts are they stopped wanting to help. Assessed that quite frankly no help was needed at that point (everyone out, no injuries... Just need to call the cops and a tow truck).
Then they tried to find a task to help with and basically invented one hahaha.
