Okay, on westbound 70, I'll get the 270 and let me know. Thank you. 602, 658, what's your ETA? I'm at Broad now. I had to go around the thing. Copy that. I had a bunch of people that were driving around me. Apparently, they thought I was shutting down the lanes for no reason.

Crazy that there's a fatality there and yet people are still driving erratically, cutting between semis, etc
