next time they won't stop in the middle of highway... if they were that idiot they deserved it...
in my country some foreign 3rd world shit stopped because he had a flat tire and he killed a family (2 adult 3 kids) because they tried tried to dodge him... only 1 kid survived that crash, but she has no family because of an idiot stopping in the fast line without leaving the lights on in the night....

Guys car broke down on what looks like a 4 lane highway. GGG parked behind him and had emergency flashers on, and was trying to help. People today are to stupid to comprehend that, such as yourself. If someone has "warning lights", "emergency flashers", "whatever you want to fucking call them" on there is a reason for it and you get out of the fucking way.

It might not be a accident. If the guy broke down he might be stuck out in the middle. It's not easy to push a car over 3 lanes of traffic that are going probably 60 or over. It's not like they were on a hill and he couldn't see them till the last min.

Car Breaks Down & You Can't Get Over To The Shoulder (Getting stuck in a live lane)
"If they're in a live lane of traffic they have to get out of the car," Sgt. Brian Bowman of Toronto Police Traffic Services tells CityNews.ca. In his experience, when he's had to stop with a police car, officers don't put the car in park, they sit there with the brake on and carefully watch the rear view mirror, he said, "because we get hit all the time." That way, if it looks like someone's coming they can take evasive action.
Sgt. Bowman warns you should climb over the guardrail if you're stuck in the far right hand lane and wait there. "If you're on the left side, I would go somewhere ahead of my vehicle and off to the side and be watching vigilantly for traffic coming, that's overtaking your vehicle."
Every situation will be different in terms of location, weather and traffic flow, but if you can, Bowman suggests you find a safe place outside your vehicle to wait.
How To Come To A Stop Safely
Make sure to signal and come to a gradual stop.
DON'T make a sudden move across multiple lanes.
If possible, stop at least 5-10 car lengths ahead of the stranded vehicle - use the extra space as a buffer zone.
Right your wheels AWAY from oncoming traffic. That will lessen the likelihood of causing another accident if your car is rear-ended.
Keep your four-way flashing lights on.
Make sure your parking brake is down.
Assess the situation carefully before deciding whether or not to get out.
***Use pylons or emergency markers placed at least 10 metres away. This will let people know something is wrong.*** This is the only thing they did wrong. but not many people carry those around. So STFU and watch the man back flip and laugh at his misfortune.
