‘Can’t make this stuff up’: California sinkhole devours cars despite warning signs

California highway patrol: This was 100 percent preventable. There is no excuse. The signs are clear, visible, and unobstructed'

For the second time in two weeks, a sinkhole in a collapsed road in California has swallowed a vehicle after a driver ignored road closure signs, according to law enforcement.

The two-lane road near Tracy, a city in the Central valley, collapsed earlier this month following weeks of destructive storms that wreaked havoc across the state. The damage and signs warning of the road's closure didn't stop drivers from attempting to traverse Kasson Road, which commuters use to travel to nearby Stockton, Manteca and Modesto, according to the local California highway patrol (CHP) office.
