An eight-lane freeway has a capacity of 8000 vehicles hour in each direction under normal conditions. On a particular day, an accident occurs at 8:00 am. Initially, two lanes are blocked, which reduces the capacity of the freeway past this point to 2,000 vehicles per hour. At 8:45, the accident is removed from the traffic lanes, which increases capacity past this point to 4000 vehicles per hour, and at 9:00 it is removed completely, which restores capacity to 8000 vehicles per hour. Demand past the point of the accident is shown below. Finish the following table and draw the queuing diagram.
