Shitty, unclear closing of exit ramp for clearing of an accident. Cruisers with flashing lights there to "close" the exit were pulled over leaving a gaping lane partly on the shoulder, ostensibly for cars to take the ramp around the tow trucks. wrecked cars already off roadway and on flatbeds. Chilly morning, obese cop didn't want to stand outside and direct cars. No signage, cones, or flares. Nothing. I slowed to a crawl and was looking at this shit trying to determine if I was able to take the passageway or travel another mile to the next exit to get to work.
God-complex pig gets out shouting, incredulously: "STOP STOP STOP - do you REALLY think this exit is open??"
me: "I don't know, it looks like we are supposed to go around and use that portion of the shoulder but I don't..."
pig: "WHAT?!?! You really think it's open?!?!? ARE YOU SERIOUS?!?! shaking head and waving hands wildly
me: "It's hard to tell, that is why I slowed down to take a more careful look. I didn't see any police out here just the cruisers pulled over..
pig: stares like a pro wrestler to try and scare me
me: "there is no-one directing traffic safely away from the incident. No one is out here and there is plenty of open roadway to safely get around. no signage or anything
pig: more staring and attempted intimidation.
me: looking at him and saying nothing
pig: well I'm sorry sir, its closed
me: ok thanks, looking over shoulder at 80mph oncoming traffic to get back on highway without any help from big boy
