There's going to be two vehicles. That one is the one that's blocking two lanes.

The semi that's on the ramp is a secondary or different crash?
04:39
Copy, but is it in the lane or is it on in the Gore ramp?
04:45
It is not in the lane.
04:49
Copy. I just wanted to make sure that the one I'm going to was the only one in the lane and make sure that the other one was there or not.

If you're trying to get on the scene, try to get up to the Ickman-on-Ramp,

southbound on-ramp, and get cone set up and get those people pushed over as soon as possible.
