[Maritime Q-Scout]

sorry guys,

The man in orange was a volunteer firefighter who was attempting to stop traffic to avoid another accident. A van coming in the opposite direction skidded off the road at the base of the hill. They were in the process of putting up a road block until a salt truck could get there to coat the highway. (highway being 80km/h single lane)

Unfortunately he thought standing in the middle of the road (as yes the centre line is yellow, and shoulders are white) at the top of a blind crest on a sharp turn was the best place to be.
