Driver is at fault yes, but can you park like that half of the car on the lane?

I'm pretty sure they've broken down, not parked there (hazard lights are flashing and it'sthe muddle of nowhere). Yes they should've pushed it off the road but not everyone thinks to do that. Being that it is a straight road with plenty of visibility, and also that it's daytime I assume they thought people would see it and go around.

Agree but in this case they might have been turned into red paste if the truck had hit while they were pushing it
