what if this was after TSHTF?

[bigpaul]

have it your own way Dev, I can see your not convinced, however I believe everything I have written to be true.otherwise I wouldn't have written it. a good long cold wet winter post SHTF will damage enough of the road and other structure to have an impact on travel of any kind, a lot of the roads and bridges in the rural areas are nothing more than cart tracks with a bit of tar thrown on the top and the bridges are pack horse bridges(similar to the one at Gunnislake which I know well) and are not made for todays traffic. I wouldn't care to use the major roads post SHTF they'll either be full of abandoned vehicles, used by the Military/TPTB(if they still exist) or will be a good place for an ambush after societal collapse.

it wont take long for the bushes at each side of the "green" lanes to grow together and completely shut off any access, they are only open now because someone cuts them back regularly...probably the local farmer or landowner I presume.
