I agree that it sounds like the driver is at fault and didn't have the proper safety equipment, but it said the Civic stopped on the freeway? Was is for stopped traffic or was he on the shoulder? I just hate it when people stop on the shoulder when their vehicle is obviously running. And when they stop, they barely get onto the shoulder. I had a flat on my 5th wheel and drove, very slow, for about a 1/4 mile on the shoulder until I could get to the exit ramp to change the tire. The tire was already shredded anyway and if I mess up the rim, I'll buy another one. End of rant. Thank You.
