03:33

03:35
tractor trailer facing the wrong way,
03:38
and taking up lane 1.
03:41
We got lanes 1 and 2 blocked at this time.
03:46
You must have tied chiefs for your location.
03:49
The track trailer spun out.
03:51
This is the wrong way.
03:52
Leans 1 and 2 are shot down, so we're 5.
03:59
Everybody in the time 3.
04:00
You okay with us going in service?
04:06
Where are you at? I need some buffers here.
04:11
432 and 97.
04:13
I'm sorry, 97 and 70.
04:16
Okay. Unless you've got a higher priority called to run, no, I need you here over 70.
04:23
Okay, my mistake, I thought you were holding 82 on the hour two.
04:33
Yeah, I was waiting to see who's where, when, and how fast, just so we can make this scene safe.
04:39
As quickly as possible, plus, when we went by the first, there's a minor crash just past 10-mills.
04:46
I can't tell if the guy I was flagging us down because he was injured or just one of us to there's a crash.
04:51
So I want to make sure someone check that incident out, and it also gives us buffers here with the tractor trailer.
05:00
Okay, we'll check it out.
05:05
By the engine, one-three-one, roughs that accent.
05:08
May I don't say, please have the call, but they're extremely backed up.
05:12
3-1-0993.
05:20
Go ahead, 3-1.
05:23
We're going to loop around and check the first one.
05:25
MSP is on C there.
05:29
Okay, perfect.
05:30
When you clear that, can you stop at the very crest of the hill? You're going to be about a quarter of a mile from the tractor trailer, but at least do we get the buffer there.
05:40
That first buffer will slow everyone else down.
05:43
So when they crest over the hill, because we've got both lanes blocked.
05:49
Yeah, we're direct.
