Looks like there are 200+ buses sitting uselessly in the flood waters. If the dipstick Mayor and Governor had mobilized ALL available buses in southern LA (there must be many hundreds more, if not thousands) on Sat. and Sun. they could have evacuated tens of thousands of people, at least.... but that would require a few drops of foresight, gumption, and common sense.
I counted about 310 busses in that picture alone. Call it 300 even. Assuming each bus can carry 30 people, that is 9,000 people that could have been evacuated assuming only one one-way trip per bus.
"Looks like there are 200+ buses sitting uselessly in the flood waters."
If those are standard 55pax school buses, and only 200 of them, they'd have been able to move about 11,000 people out of the city. If they had people laying or sitting in the aisles, they could have moved a few more per bus. Who needs a toilet if waiting for it means your life? As for the lack of a sauna someone else mentioned, all they have to do is ride with the windows up, and they'll have their sauna, too.
