This confuses the hell out of me.
How are there so many people STILL crashing into the ALREADY stopped and crashed cars.
Now, obviously, there is some kind of construction/work crew judging by the cones on the one lane. So, whey the hell is this traffic still blazing down the road at 60+mph?
AND how do these morons NOT see stopped/smashed vehicles until they're 20 yards in front of them?

That clip is a perfect example of the dangers of a freeway crash scene. The asshole shooting the video should've been 300 meters from that spot, waving approaching cars to slow down.
Accidents after the initial crash are so unneccessary and this guy could've easily prevented some. All you see there in the clip is very typical to these situations.
As PMB said, people don't expect anyone walking on a freeway. You can imagine it yourself: even slowing down without a reason in heavy traffic wouldn't feel right.
You have cars behind you etc. Besides its already dark in that clip and it's really hard to estimate the speeds of objects in front of you if they're moving to the same direction
(or stay still). I also believe that most humans are, in fact very stupid.
The people on crash scenes are a factor that gives headache to emergency personnel and easily makes the outcome morbid.
btw-- watching that clip with Xploding Plastix - Sunset Spirals playing on the background makes it look unreal
