Maybe it's my new monitor, but it looks like each of the vehicles have some roof lights on. It may be that the speed of the shutter caught them off angle, but I can see illumination in each light bar. (including the wrecker).

Don't fret all of you concerned photo over-analysts. No Missouri State Troopers were harmed in the taking of this photo. I assure you that when I took this photo each emergency vehicle was properly illuminated and all traffic slowed down and moved to the opposite lane (which in this case was on the left). This selfless act of concern by approaching traffic allowed emergency response personnel full and unencumbered access to the scene, where together in some sort of an non-orchestrated make-shift Machiavellian ballet, they were able to render first aid and clear the traffic lane without loss of life or any unnecessary delay to the unsuspecting road-weary travelers whose lives were temporarily interrupted as they ventured out in pursuit of their personal definition of The American Dream.

I noticed you won't even touch "Machiavellian"

I stumbled across that one... but my spellchecker didn't give me a red alert. So I left it alone.

I just woke up. Sorry. First attempt at sarcasm of the day.

Corrections made.

Not having lights on during traffic stops?! That makes absolutely no sense at all...sounds like a policy developed by someone who created it using a BONG-oriented system.
