00:03
The freeway is completely stopped.
00:06
Well, I'll say maybe going about two miles an hour.
00:10
All lanes.
00:11
I don't know what happened, but, uh,
00:15
yeah, just coming down.
00:18
Towards Agua Dulce.
00:20
And yep,
00:22
I don't know what it is, but something.
00:28
Oh, no, that's not good.
00:30
Ah, geez.
00:33
Too early for that.
00:36
And,
00:37
yeah, oh.
00:39
Yeah, you're gonna try to take side road or just travel down the highway?
00:45
No, I can't, I'm sucking it. There's no exit.
00:49
It's just, you got to, so once you're,
00:51
I'm like in between.
00:53
So,

yeah, once you pass near Escondido Canyon, there's nothing until near Adultic Canyon.

And I can see one to,
01:11
right now I can see two big rigs up ahead of me, but they're over there, they're rolling. They're not, like, stuff or anything, so.
01:20
Yeah, I'm surprised I keyed up a little bit ago, but I'm in the canyon, like in between, so if the signal is kind of scratchy, it's where I'm at. But yeah,
01:32
anyway, I thought to give you the heads up, say, good morning.
01:37
Oh man, yeah,
01:40
yeah, it looks like you're stuck.
01:41
Yeah, it must have a helicopter.
01:43
But what should you do? I don't know.
01:48
But, man,
01:51
well, hopefully get out of that mess.
01:53
Hopefully it's not too far down the road.
01:56
But yeah, it's always like it's around near Descadillo when things happen.
02:00
I don't know.
