Peer, just the fact that you are asking via your message is blood curdling. As they say “just what I would do”
DO NOT MOVE THE VEHICLE UNTILL IT HAS BEEN INSPECTED BY A PROFESSIONAL MECHANIC. THE LIVES OF YOUR FAMILY AND POSSIBLY SOMEONE I KNOW ARE AT RISK. Many things can be at fault. Your driving style, your brakes, traffic and weather conditions, etc. They must all be addressed BEFORE putting the vehicle back on the road. LA traffic is no place to test theories.
Please heed this warning.

Subject: [GMCnet] Brakes going soft - How long to wait / What to do?
This morning we left Big Bear Lake and are on our way towards Los Angeles.
On the downhill on CA330 the brake pedal all of a sudden became very
soft, and braking was ... nearly non-existant. We found a nice place to
stop for a while, and I wonder, if it is okay to just let the brake
fluid cool down, or if there might be other things I should do. If cool
down, how long would be appropriate?
