https://ktla.com/news/local-news/bear-brings-traffic-to-a-halt-on-busy-southern-california-freeway/A bear brought motorists to a stop in Santa Clarita on Tuesday evening when it wandered onto a busy freeway and paused to look around.
The traffic-snarling omnivore was spotted shortly after 7 p.m. on the 14 Freeway near Newhall Avenue.
Video recorded by @dan-kanes and shared with KTLA shows the bear walking on the freeway, looking around and then turning back toward the hills.

The bear figures he is a VIP.

the bear didn't get hurt. Nor did anyone else, I assume. These are the bare facts (ha ha heh...I couldn't resist one pun here)...

Fullerton is a long way from CA-14 in Santa Clarita.
That bear needs to consult its GPS
