    Im guessing a few cars stopped/had to stop/were stopped by a severely cracked or missing road & then the rest behind them had to stop too. Im guessing that’s when the main/larger section caved.

    On a busy road it could take far less than a minute for 18 cars to pile up. And at 2am ppl prob didn’t see enough to fully comprehend the situation.

    Also since it was running water that caused the cave in, all cars fell/slid towards the lowest point:
