The effects of a badly located accident and bugging out

[Mortblanc]

Contemplate some realities;

1. That rush hour mess is simply PART of the traffic on the road at once. Imagine EVERYONE on the road at once.

2. The accident does not have to happen at a critical spot, it becomes the critical spot as soon as it halts traffic flow.

3. It only take on twit to get everyone killed.

4. TPTB know this is going to happen in an emergency and it terrifies them. That is why they evacuate by helicopter. It is also why they evacuate and then determine if they need to call for an evacuation from their safe location.

5. in order to avoid this panic (and this is the panic you hear them speak about) they would much prefer to call for a "lockdown" (the term that has replaced "martial law" as politically correct). In order to keep everyone off the roads they will allow no one on the roads.

Fact of the matter is that in a real crisis you are not going anywhere due to either the stupidity of the population or the control of TPTB.

"Bugging out" by vehicle is only feasible if one accomplishes it prior too the event. (I bugged out in 1982)

But just think; all those abandoned cars, all that motor oil in the crankcases, all that transmission fluid, all that metal, all that leather...

That clogged highway can be mined for resources for the next 100 years!

And the shoulders and medians are already cleared to provide the donkey tracks for the road system of the future.
