The emergency services were pretty impressed. And yes, we did bring them out. Eventually. I called 911 as soon as Hebe had stepped out of the car. She asked me if I had a preference for a tow truck. i'm like well I have AAA but I really think you mostly want to get the police here and get it out of the way. Seems like she thought I was just trying to get faster service or something. She called me 5-10 minutes later and said "they won't tow you on AAA unless you call them yourselves" (meanwhile shitload of traffic is steering round, people on both sides stopping to check we're OK and to tell us to stay away from the car....) I said there's no police here yet.... and she was "oh, I thought your car was on the median....."
two minutes later max, cop pulls up. We end up with three cop cars, two fire trucks (gas all over the road), fire chief's truck, tow truck and a couple we don't know why they're there......
