The bear was wandering on Interstate 14 near Newhall Street in Santa Clarita, when driver Dan Kenes was surprised by the sight and photographed the animal.
The bear appears in the video, which was filmed last week, wandering the road and stopping traffic.
After contemplating the view for a short while, the bear turned and headed back off the road to the wooded area from which it had come.
Some attributed the bear’s appearance among cars to the possibility that it was searching for food in an area far from its original location.
