Just remove float:left; from .card class and add white-space:nowrap; in #outerContainer

#outerContainer {
  width: 100%;
  height: 150px;
  background: red;
  overflow: hidden;
  overflow-x: auto;
  white-space: nowrap;
}

.card {
  display: inline-block;
  width: 100px;
  height: 150px;
  margin-right: 10px;
  background: #fff;
}
<div id="outerContainer">
  <div class="card"></div>
  <div class="card"></div>
  <div class="card"></div>
  <div class="card"></div>
  <div class="card"></div>
  <div class="card"></div>
  <div class="card"></div>
</div>

#outerContainer {
  width: 100%;
  height: 150px;
  background: red;
  overflow: hidden;
  overflow-x: scroll;
  display: flex;
}

.card {
  min-width: 100px;
  height: 150px;
  margin-right: 10px;
  background: #fff;
}
<div id="outerContainer">
  <div class="card"></div>
  <div class="card"></div>
  <div class="card"></div>
  <div class="card"></div>
  <div class="card"></div>
  <div class="card"></div>
  <div class="card"></div>
</div>

Your card elements go to second row. flex can make it a bit easier.
