KTLA reporter Gene Kang was on Sunset Boulevard and Palisades Drive, which was packed with abandoned vehicles. A firefighter noted the vehicles had been left without their keys and blocking an evacuation route, preventing fire crews from accessing the area.

Emergency officials used a bulldozer to clear several cars that were abandoned along Sunset Blvd as the Palisades Fire roared close.

Firefighters used a bulldozer to shove abandoned vehicles aside on a roadway in the Pacific Palisades area of Los Angeles on Tuesday, January 7, as the Palisades fire tore through houses in the neighborhood.

Evacuees escaping the Palisades Fire were asked to abandon their vehicles, but doing so clogged up the roadways.

Firefighters in the Los Angeles, California area are bulldozing luxury cars out of the way after owners ditched them in streets. The Teslas, Mercedes, BMWs, etc. have clogged roads officials need to get firetrucks and other resources down to combat the out-of-control wildfire that’s now ripping through ritzy neighborhoods.
