Been there, done that. The people in question hung an SCA banner off the 
back of the dead vehicle. I saw 'em, pulled over. At one point in the 
next hour or so, there were around 20 carloads of SCAdians in the 
pullover area, discussing how to help these people. We figured something 
out, and I wound up getting them home. Made a LONG but somewhat amusing 
war story...
