So I'm out here is a stable dump truck, I-25, southbound near 84th Avenue.

If anything, K, RT6?
00:43
RT6.

RT6. I was trying to get a hold of RT7 to see if he could release his brakes.
00:51
If he could release his brakes, I could pull him out of traffic.

If you want to come up here and see if you can do that, we can.
