They’ve set up contraflow on multilane highways to aid evacuation, that’s something I’ve only heard of in the southeast ahead of hurricane landfall in this country. So, it does appear that there was at least some emergency planning, which is a relief. I’ve been sitting here dumbfounded that the situation has been allowed to get so far out of hand to begin with. That deferred maintenance is criminal. Heads should roll, but I suspect they won’t, since the Democrat controlled state government is obviously unconcerned about the Republican parts of the state.
That part of the state is republican territory as is almost all of CA north of Sacramento.

This is the first I've heard that any maintenance was deferred. Do you have a link? What maintenance could they have done to prevent this?
