They could have pulled into a driveway. I live there. A layer of sleet covered with thin snow. Slipperiest I have ever encountered in 40 years of driving.
And you muttered to yourself you could’a should’a stayed home.

Your description alone convinces me that any vehicles involved in an accident had to be driving too fast for the super slippery conditions. Comcast parked where they could access the cable to work on it. The road doesn’t have a solid shoulder where the repairman could swing the boom out over the side of the truck without the shoulder collapsing. That is why he parked on the asphalt.
