I saw this this morning, it was a 3/4 ton ford and he was trying to tow 24K with it. it upset me that the guy on the right shoulder didn't move and had to be told to move by CHP so the traffic could get by savely.

Referring to what looked like a landscaper truck and trailer?

I think they were giving refuge to the truck occupants, since you see later in the video the family run across the highway from that direction.

100 percent agree other driver could have parked further off the road rather than directly on the shoulder.
