“The middle of I-70 would do nicely............”
Don’t laugh, because this is exactly what happened in 1971 in Saudi Arabia when a busload of British Muslims were on their pilgrimage to Mecca. They had made the trip all the way from London.
The busdriver stopped because it was evening prayer time. Instead of parking on the top of the hill the driver stopped at the bottom and parked the bus on the side of the road. Every one piled out of the bus and started praying right in the middle of the road.
Guess what - a tanker truck came roaring down the hill but was unable to avoid the group of pilgrims. It was evening time and road vision was impaired because of a sandstorm.
