As a PA resident, I apologize for our state's 3rd world country level responses to these kinds of incidents over the past few years on MAJOR HIGHWAYS (including Turnpike).
Previous Governors would have been in a helicopter going to the scene to resolve the issue and push stranded truck off the road.
Not too long ago the Turnpike had similar issues and they wouldn't even move the concrete dividers to allow people to use the other, clear and closed side of the road to escape.
Sorry, warning you is the best I can do from here. Be safe and always carry a winter emergency kit and supplies for at least 24 hrs with you :)
The concrete dividers on the turnpike are permanently built and can't be moved, unlike the temporary ones on construction projects.
