People no doubt drove past the scene of the "Zimmerman rescue", why did no witnesses speak? [View all]

The accident that we are told Zimmerman rescued a family from happened on a busy highway. Whenever there is an accident on a busy highway there are people who slow down to gawk and look at the accident scene, I can not for the life of me understand how one of the most recognizable faces in the news can stand on the side of the highway rescuing a family from a car without a single person saying anything about it for four days.

How did every single person driving by the scene of the accident and gawking it miss the fact that George Zimmerman was there? I am not aware of a single Facebook or any talk from anyone that they spotted George Zimmerman at the accident. If someone can cite me a witness that said anything about the incident in the four days following the accident before the police came out and reported it I would like to hear about it.

Please explain to me how they were able to keep everyone quiet for four days about a rescue by a face as well known as George Zimmerman's on the side of a busy freeway with dozens if not hundreds of cars driving by and looking at the scene. I know I would not be able to keep quiet if I saw something that crazy, and I am trying to figure out how everyone else was able to.

Go ahead and call me a "conspiracy theorist", but I can not for the life of me understand how a heroic rescue like this could happen on the side of a busy highway without anyone talking about it for four days.
