We were driving home to Tehachapi from San Diego from my grandmother's funeral and were in Mojave when this happened. We stayed in traffic for a while, then made a U-turn and went to Rosamond to try and take Tehachapi Willow Springs Road. Talked to a few folks at a gas station, and decided it would be safer to just get a hotel and wait it out. All the hotels in Lancaster/Palmdale and the surrounding area were filled, so we ended up having to drive to LA to find a hotel. Definitely an emotional roller coaster of a week. I just thank the Lord we didn't get there sooner and get stuck in that mud.
I’m very familiar with this highway 58 between Mojave’s and tehachapi, ca. I’ve been reading a lot of these comments and just for your information: 1) there’s no way to drive up the hill in a hummer, truck, suv, etc because there’s a drop on the other side of that ledge 2) the edge or hill is sopping in water that given any type of vehicle and attempting to go up will get stuck in thick clay mud and if you were to make it, you’d be dropping down into a small canyon or steep hill, no flat out after that. 3) during this rainy time, there was construction that only allowed for a one lane and driving 45 mph. 4) I believe that due to the heavy rain, there were also mud slides either before and after the filming of this vid, that trapped a significant amount of vehicles and made it impossible to drive out. These vehicles were stuck in place for hours and hours. 5) I was one of the few vehicles that made it out of that canyon part of hwy 58 before the rains really came down. When I got to Victorville, ca, I had heard that many vehicles’ engines had flooded as parts of the hwy were deeper than others parts. I can’t imagine having to stay in one place for hours at a time and hoping that the rains don’t drop a deluge. Remember, you’re going up in elevation so I’m sure the vehicles down the hwy were in even more in danger. It was a dangerous day. Thanks for the vid. It gave me a different perspective from a higher vantage point. I can only imagine what that vehicle in the front must have been feeling.
I recognize this because I was stuck on this same freeway all night. Over a hundred vehicles stuck in this mess at five o'clock rush hour. It looks like just water, but it was mud that you could walk on a short time later. It had the interstate closed for many days after this for the road crews to remove all the vehicles and the mud.
of course. . smart guy.. and a lot of stu.p.id people on smaller cars.. stay they and not moving let other to go away.. then News rescue from their cars.. a few inches flooding.

Kenetic Kups So are you. Because you’re not awake and in a coma. You actually didn’t get the joke. That’s why you commented with such a dumb ass response. 😂😂
Sometimes it is worse to sit and make no decision that gives you no chance of recovery than it is to make a decision early on in a problem and at least give yourself a fighting chance to get out of the problem. Git while the gitten's good!
Lets all just sit here and wait until the water dries up 😵. Why is it that only two cars decided to do the right thing and go the opposite direction. Smh. Hopeless 😩.
Highway 58 was once a 2 lane road that fit the valley very well with deep drains on both sides. Then the California traffic became too much for 2 lanes and they rebuilt it into 4 lanes with the center divider to keep people from crashing into each other. There was no room for ditches, so they put drain pipes along the sides with screens to keep logs and rocks out of the pipe. In a flash flood, the brush and rocks block up the screens and the water can't get off the road into the pipes. Fortunately, floods like this only happen once or twice a year.
It appears that the concrete divider does an almost perfect job of channeling the water into one side of the highway, making the situation much worse than necessary. It solves the problem of head-on collisions and creates a new & different problem.
Lmfao 🤣 California designed! Money grifted and laundered Into someone pocket with kick backs to the government. Thanks stupid tax payer! Now we need more money to fix.

People are so stupid when it comes to emergency situations...my fight or flight senses would have propelled me up the side of that hill or turning my candied ass right around! You can bet that I wouldn't have just sat their like an idiot waiting for it to get worse!
Well cars cannot get on the hill because the water running on the side of the freeway creates a ditch which of course could not get into it after the ditch is full of water the water is going to run on the freeway lanes that’s white cars cannot climb the hill pick us is the ditch on the Edge
That's right go driving up the side of that hill which collapses into a soggy mud-mess under your wheels leaving you upside-down in the flooded road. Turn around to go the other way only to find the road behind you blocked by sideways cars. Face it, you're stuck there.
Neither do you. It doesn't matter how offroad your vehicle is, tires are filled with air, they float. The water will pick your car up when it is that deep and flowing that fast. You will also hydrolock in sedans and blow your engine.
In Georgia it is legal to buy a " total loss / rebuild title" from another state due to flooding. I use to work at a used crap dealership and the cleaning dpt would just paint the carpet from flooded cars that they were buying by the truckloads from New Jersey floodings.
Toward the end of the clip, once the guy panned to his left and to the rear, I knew exactly where he was at; on W/B 58 between the truck scales and the Cameron exit. Approximate GPS position - N35°06'10.7" W118°16'41.8" Been through that place many times, but not while it was raining.
This is a remarkable video and it's too bad it's titled only with numbers, making it impossible to find in a search on this event. It's also remarkable how fast all this happens; the water is up and then down in just minutes. I'm surprised that more drivers didn't follow the lead of the people at the beginning who had the presence of mind to get the hell out of there and drive back in the wrong direction; most other vehicles just sit there and get stuck.
I remember this. I live nearby. After the flash flood and mudslide, the sediment got caked and baked into a concrete-like hard pack. Several dozen cars were totalled.
Most likely because there were other small, light cars that were being carried away, and including all the cars behind them blocking the highway. If you were to try, the only space you have is the right way of the highway from the semi truck driver's view and there's a ditch there.
I highly doubt it. 1.He parked behind a truck and couldn't be more of a break than the truck already was. 2. Facing into the flow, neither the truck not the car could be much of a break. 3.He didn't stay.
As an Egyptian driver we would use that hill as a third lane at that type of situations but all drivers right there look so respectful to the road lane :D
Everybody trying to blame the roadway design should think about a few things. This is a mountain pass, a.k.a. a low path between hills, which water prefers for the same reason you do (gravity). The road is at the bottom of what has always been a potential river valley, probably because horses and humans years ago found that to be the easiest route. But back then, if the water ever came up, a horse or human could just go sideways up the hill a bit and keep going, instead of sitting helpless like these modern pod-people from the Matrix. Secondly horizontal space next to the roadway is at a premium in this kind of steep terrain. Space where you might be inclined to add another lane to satisfy your fired-up constituency who insist on driving through here by the millions. Space where you might instead want to add a ditch for surface water runoff. You either have to cut sideways into the hill or raise the road bed and/or bury pipes, any of which adds millions to the cost and requires lengthy road closures. Looks like in this case the political clout of millions of people who insist on driving won out, and they added the extra lanes but not the ditches (can't really tell though). With or without a ditch, adding lanes will inevitably (because it's literally the goal), increase the surface area of pavement (water no likey, water run offy) and decrease the amount of exposed soil and vegetation that would otherwise have slowed the water down and/or given it a chance to soak into the ground. Which makes flooding "flashier" and worse. Anyway it's a desert, right? It'll never rain super-much here. Well, probably back in the day that used to be true, but now it's not, because the climate has changed, which is partly because of those same people who insist on driving everywhere constantly. Are engineers supposed to design infinite roads with infinite capacity for infinite numbers of cars AND design infinite drainage for infinitely bigger and more frequent flash-floods caused by the same cars? No, I'm sorry, fuck me very much, there are limits. PS the K-rails/jersey barriers on the left are there for the same reason we put helmets on some kids: To keep 'em from hurting themselves.
The road is not at the bottom of the valley, it's up on the side. Cache Creek is to the left in this view, down lower. The flood came out of a side ravine up the road a ways. One that rarely has much water in it. There was an unusual cloudburst a little way up the hills to the right.
I answered my own question; part of your video made the following newscast; apparently, a 10 mile stretch of Hwy 58 was shut down ffor SEVERAL DAYS! due to this flood of mud and debris brought about by desert, torrential rains. The state of the freeway and the cars were a lot worse behind you with debris covering some of their hoods. It must have been very scary. You were probably there all night long and into the next day until they rescued you, if you took the rescue. Your rig looked very comfortable. Here's the newscast: abc7.com/weather/10-mile-stretch-of-cars-stuck-on-sr-58-in-tehachapi/1036201/

Driving into oncoming traffic is a great idea..
But the road was backed up for 10 miles, so I'm guessing those people didn't get to far.
They are stuck down yonder
John O Brien what so sitting there is better. Atleast try and do something, id speed my car up that hill see how far up i could get
Going downstream? You do realize it’s piling up high somewhere down there. I suppose perhaps they were trying to find someplace they could go.
Why would they build a solid wall without breaks to drain water? This is a flood river created by poor design.
Welcome to California!
It's California what do you expect.
Its not a poor design its better than having both sides filled with water and the watter will find a ditch to settle in.
Highway 58 was once a 2 lane road that fit the valley very well with deep drains on both sides. Then the California traffic became too much for 2 lanes and they rebuilt it into 4 lanes with the center divider to keep people from crashing into each other. There was no room for ditches, so they put drain pipes along the sides with screens to keep logs and rocks out of the pipe. In a flash flood, the brush and rocks block up the screens and the water can't get off the road into the pipes. Fortunately, floods like this only happen once or twice a year.
The sold concrete medial wall is a standard requirement for freeways everywhere in the entire USA, people.
Credit to the red sedan for backing up against the semi. If ya can't run, brace yourself against a solid object. Seemed to work well in this case.
It appears that the concrete divider does an almost perfect job of channeling the water into one side of the highway, making the situation much worse than necessary. It solves the problem of head-on collisions and creates a new & different problem.

Everybody trying to blame the roadway design should think about a few things. This is a mountain pass, a.k.a. a low path between hills, which water prefers for the same reason you do (gravity). The road is at the bottom of what has always been a potential river valley, probably because horses and humans years ago found that to be the easiest route. But back then, if the water ever came up, a horse or human could just go sideways up the hill a bit and keep going, instead of sitting helpless like these modern pod-people from the Matrix.
Secondly horizontal space next to the roadway is at a premium in this kind of steep terrain. Space where you might be inclined to add another lane to satisfy your fired-up constituency who insist on driving through here by the millions. Space where you might instead want to add a ditch for surface water runoff. You either have to cut sideways into the hill or raise the road bed and/or bury pipes, any of which adds millions to the cost and requires lengthy road closures.
Looks like in this case the political clout of millions of people who insist on driving won out, and they added the extra lanes but not the ditches (can't really tell though). With or without a ditch, adding lanes will inevitably (because it's literally the goal), increase the surface area of pavement (water no likey, water run offy) and decrease the amount of exposed soil and vegetation that would otherwise have slowed the water down and/or given it a chance to soak into the ground. Which makes flooding "flashier" and worse.
Anyway it's a desert, right? It'll never rain super-much here. Well, probably back in the day that used to be true, but now it's not, because the climate has changed, which is partly because of those same people who insist on driving everywhere constantly. Are engineers supposed to design infinite roads with infinite capacity for infinite numbers of cars AND design infinite drainage for infinitely bigger and more frequent flash-floods caused by the same cars? No, I'm sorry, fuck me very much, there are limits.
PS the K-rails/jersey barriers on the left are there for the same reason we put helmets on some kids: To keep 'em from hurting themselves.
The road is not at the bottom of the valley, it's up on the side. Cache Creek is to the left in this view, down lower. The flood came out of a side ravine up the road a ways. One that rarely has much water in it. There was an unusual cloudburst a little way up the hills to the right.
13:50 getting mesmerized by wipers and cop car lights! what will they do!
140 beats per minute wiper metronome. You could produce a trap beat while waiting.
I answered my own question; part of your video made the following newscast; apparently, a 10 mile stretch of Hwy 58 was shut down ffor SEVERAL DAYS! due to this flood of mud and debris brought about by desert, torrential rains. The state of the freeway and the cars were a lot worse behind you with debris covering some of their hoods. It must have been very scary. You were probably there all night long and into the next day until they rescued you, if you took the rescue. Your rig looked very comfortable. Here's the newscast: abc7.com/weather/10-mile-stretch-of-cars-stuck-on-sr-58-in-tehachapi/1036201/
WOW. SUPERB VIDEO. I LOVE IT.
