Two people were hospitalized Tuesday morning after a series of pre-dawn crashes triggered by a stalled car on a freeway in the South Los Angeles area.
Several vehicles slammed head-on into the car stalled in southbound lanes on the 110 Freeway near Florence Avenue.
At least four different crashes near Florence Avenue were caught on camera Tuesday morning, plus several near-misses – all taking place within a few minutes.
Details about the injured victims’ conditions were not immediately available.

Can someone please explain to me how the cars did not see the wreck? After the 2nd car crashes it should have been pretty visible. Can someone please respond to me.
I am very surprised that people were flying at 100 mph. Most of the drivers did not care about the stalled car. They also did not stop to help the victims. I don’t see anyone calling the Police or an ambulance. No one really cares if any one is alive , maybe dead, maybe almost dead. No one cares.
I guess California is the Uganda of America. I guess California is one big giant massive wild jungle.
This utter & selfish insanity of people just flying right through without pulling over to see if there is anything they can do to help, is completely demented, & can only happens in morally corrupt places like California.
its not normal how long it is taking the police to respond. BH we have hatzolah or else who knows what would happen if we had to rely on their extremely slow response time

If you’re not trained to help keep moving.
Disturbing is an understatement.
Why is the original guy who stalled, walking around like there is no danger? Basic knowledge is get away from your car and somewhere safe off the road!
Second is why did no one stop and put their hazard lights on?? From afar cars could see hazard lights flash and danger…
To your crazy: We do not know what the road is like behind the camera -where the cars are coming from – It may well be that the site of the crash is visible to drivers only for a second or two- not enough time for all drivers to suddenly take evasive action.
What should have happened is the person videoing- instead of videoing -he should have immediately placed his emergency triangle at least 100 meters before the crash- to give drivers warning of the hazard ahead.
He would have to wait until safe and then run across the road placing down the reflective hazard triangle as quickly as possible…..
Also we see from here that passengers should be taken out of the first vehicle immediately and placed safely at the side of the road -AHEAD of the site of the crash. If passengers are placed on the side of the road in front of the crash- they may be hit from the next car that piles into the crash!!!
@YOUR_CRAZY,
When you are driving at high speeds in the left lane its very difficult to come to a full stop. There are no or very minimal lights on the highway and the lights of the car only illuminate about 50 feet in front of your car. Since the car that stopped had no lights on it was very difficult to see it ahead of time. Also, it could be the driver got distracted for that second when had a chance to see it.
