Now what I am going to say here is speculative, but it opens up the debate for visual barriers being erected during highway accidents. I was listening to 680 and there was an eastbound crash and a helicopter was used to fly an accident victim to Sunnybrook. This was between Mavis and Hurontario. Then there was an accident that happened after in the westbound lanes around Dixie. Now considering there was a "life filght" happening on the eastbound lanes, you just have to know the gawkers were out in FULL FORCE going in the other direction.
Could they have eventually caused the westbound crash? That's the first thought that came into my head after I heard of the westbound crash.
I've heard of places like Japan erecting mobile barriers so that you reduce the gawking effect.... and keep the flow of traffic moving. I think this would be a good idea for our highway accidents, it MAY HAVE saved a life today.
