Yep. Apparently, earlier, the flames were getting close to the road and traffic was gridlocked. People just panicked and ran. (LAFD says if you DO have to abandon your car, leave the keys. #ProTip.)
Prayers for all affected and thanks to the brave heroes putting their lives on the line.
I really hope this bulldozer driver gets to tell his grandkids about the day he crushed benzes and lambos with impunity and opened up the highway for emergency vehicles.

also the cars full of gasoline will help the fire jump the road if they arent on to the side - besides blocking firefighters..
Buy in the Palisades the reality agent said. It’s the best place to be close to the ocean and you can still drive to work in Burbank. You will love it.
Not loving it!
Was this normal 10,20,30,40,50,60,70,80,90,100 years ago??????
Can you imagine driving home on the freeway and all of a sudden there is traffic. You look ahead and there’s a wildfire. And the best option you have is to abandon your car and just sprint the opposite direction?
Incredible effort by the LAFD under such challenging conditions. Clearing the way to protect lives and property is nothing short of heroic. #PalisadesFire
U-Haul refills propane 7 days a week, even on game day.
Find a location near you.
The people in front should be held liable for every car behind them! They made a dumb choice for everyone else left on the mountain!
Nobody let Elon know? Half those cars are Teslas and he could have done some A.S.S. (actual smart summon) with it. Or at least give remote access to FD.
Any teslas? Popular in that neck of the woods and almost imposible to extinguish.
For those of us who worked and lived through the Camp Fire there are a number of eerie parallels today.
This image is all to similar to the life or death work of moving abandoned cars on road out of Paradise that blocked the evacuation route.
I believe this is on Sunset. Other photogs have panned from this shot to see the base of Palisades Dr.

Hopefully everyone is OK. Quite a tense time for them. They'll sell you more cars, don't worry.
Better be careful with that Tesla. We don't need a car fire to add to the problem.
I would have cried if I had to leave my car and my house. But I would rather be safe
Why don’t they make this common sense information available? I would’ve never thought to leave my keys in the car and are they really checking cars for keys before they bulldoze them?
I believe it was due to the traffic jam--they were impatient and walked down the street. The flames weren't on top of them.
They thought they'd be safer on foot than in their car? Good God.
Thats horrifying.
They need a giant CLAW, to just pile em up on the sides. The fire dept can’t even get up there!
People were trying to escape , my friend had to wait 3 hours in her car with kids and pets
Should have called repo men. They would get the cars quicker than the dozer
This is awesome deny every insurance claim these people are too stupid to deserve it
As a dozer operator. This guy gives me anxiety. Come tf on. Move that shit
LOL their idiots use a rubber tire loader and just pick them up, and dont screw up your streets
How ironic these fart sniffers are in love with cleaner air, buys all electric and teslas, then votes to allow meth heads to light their city on fire destroying the air quality.
The tf you mean unreal? How the fuck you expect emergency services to get through? Drive over them? Fucking asshole.
California should continue doing absolutely nothing to manager their dead wood in their forests. Seems to be working well.
1991: "People who would never have made it out on the roadway, which was crowded with cars trying to get out of the burn area and emergency vehicles trying to get in, may have had their lives saved because they escaped down the stairs"
we should all ask to use his money and connections to help put out the fire that's threatening so many American citizens. He loves America, right? And he's got money and connections, right? What a great way to show that he can get things done.
Don;t be a dumbass that evacuates just to leave your car sitting in the road and running away. Drive through the fire.
Fuck Los Angeles city government… They can instantly get killer destructive bulldozers to destroy property in minutes instead of helping the poor people get out of their houses to safety. FUCK THEM #LosAngeles. #LosAngelesfire #LosAngelesCA #earthquake
