How do you get cars off a freeway that are stuck there due to a major accident?

Yesterday, not far from my home, one direction of a 10 lane major freeway was closed due to a horrific accident. In California that’s called a SigAlert. As I listened to the radio while working, I realized the freeway had been closed for 8-10 hours. They can’t expect anyone to just sit there all that time! At the least, you gotta hit the head!

So how does the Hwy Patrol get everybody off the freeway, and back to their business? You couldn’t go forward, and the other nearest exit was about 21/2 miles BEHIND the accident.I’m particularly interested in the cars at the very front, almost touching the accident.
I was really hoping someone from a hwy patrol org would have answered.
