Drone video shows major damage after chunk of iconic California highway washes into ocean

New drone video shows the recent damage wrought on California's iconic Highway 1, where part of the road collapsed after heavy rains washed it into the ocean last week. The video, released by the Monterey County Sheriff's Office, shows a large part of the highway still flooded and covered with debris from recent rainfall and mudslides. At the point of collapse, about 45 miles south of Carmel in the Big Sur area, both lanes of the road are completely gone, with a massive hole sloping toward the Pacific Ocean in its place. The sheriff's office video shows water running through the collapsed part of the road, which by Friday had fallen into the sea. California has been plagued by extensive mudslides, largely in areas burned out during the previous season's wildfires.
