I don't know that I would stop on an interstate unless I knew they were seriously hurt. I'd call the law... somebody could through something in front of you to make you stop, thinking you'd hit them and then rob/kill you.

Question... If you hit a pedestrian on the Interstate, and you stop and call for help, can they charge you with a crime for hitting an ILLEGAL pedestrian? I ask that because its supposed to be illegal for pedestrians to be on ANY Interstate in the US.
