You're correct...it's not against the law to change lanes when those lanes are seperated by a broken white line & when it is safe to do so. However, IT IS ILLEGAL(not to mention _extremely unsafe)_ to intentionally cross over a solid white boundry line... _up & over a concrete median,_ over/across a solid yellow shoulder/edge of pavement line & merge onto an adjacent access road where cars are traveling at highway speeds...just to avoid the inconvenience of having to sit in a traffic jam.

There's also a HIGH population in L.A. CA is the most populated state in the country. About 38 million people. I was born and raised there, but left in 1976 to move to O.C. Left there in 1989. Still in CA though.
In the 80s and 90s CHP was a constant presence, always out and visible. It kept things flowing fairly well. I don't know who is responsible for getting rid of them, now the only time you see them is cleaning up the carnage. CA freeways have become a dangerous free for all with no rules.
A couple years ago news reporter Gene Kang caught a fender bender car accident between 2 vehicles at a Los Angeles neighborhood stop sign intersection.
Having driven extensively in both LA and Dallas, TX, I think Dallas is actually worse now. Believe it or not, they’re even MORE aggressive and ruthless than in LA somehow.
@common_sense1512 Exaggerate much?? SLC almost never has TWO FEET of snow on the ground. It’s not even all that common for it to get two feet of snow over a whole month. Stop this ridiculousness.
Someone should've really called the police there since it clearly wasn't going to stop and was a huge traffic hazard. All it takes is one truck with bad brakes and you're all done for.
Everyone should get a ticket for crossing that shoulder of the road Just sit back and wait and chill your not going anywhere what's the rush people are so Selfish these days all about me me me on the road hell with everyone else🤬😡
One more lane bro, just one more lane! Texas did it, they widened one of their highways to 26 lanes and then saw an increase in travel times! Woo-hoo, they fixed traffic! Wait a minute...
You can see Terrible California concrete highway construction with wide bumpy gaps between sections. Other states and countries don’t have this issue with concrete. Something is very wrong with the highway construction process in CA. Concrete, because of heat expansion issues, is not laid continuously like asphalt, but in CA there are often jarring bumps between sections.
LA doesn't get any snow or ice, so I don't want to hear people complain about road conditions. Come up north where there are snowplows and salt and see how the roads are in February...

This may be not an option for the majority of people, but whoever can, I suggest you make a long drive at night. It is just so much better, the roads empty, very little to no stress. If you can manage to adjust your sleep cycle to get up some time in the evening, not long before the drive, tiredness should not be an issue. You should have something on the drive, which keeps your head entertained.
Just a friendly reminder that Los Angeles had the most extensive streetcar network in the whole USA nearly 80 years ago and people gave that up for this.
Well now you're going to have to have concrete dividers that prevent you from EVER crossing. Anyone doing this should lose their license permanently. NONE of them have insurance I bet.
Cops are notorious for finishing a traffic collision investigation and the just sitting there and doing nothing, just to screw up traffic. If we are expected to pull off to a safe place and inspect damage/exchange info, maybe the cops should move after they determine that YES indeed there was a wreck and the car is on the truck…
I know how to fix this, let’s build more and more Stack and Pack buildings everywhere and let even more people move here. You can never have enough people living in California. Hell let’s just let the whole world move here, build baby build! Sardines in a can, why not! Plenty of Water and Electricity to go around, No Conserving Needed!
“Leave now, traffic is great!” Way to induce some demand. That’ll really make things better. Btw, there are no “accidents!” These are crashes! Or wrecks. Get it right FFS!
And that's why the accident happened in the first place. People are always in a rush to go nowhere.
