Most people do not wait for a "Mandatory" Evacuation order and I-10 was packed starting Saturday afternoon.

Did they have the east bound lanes reversed? Did that help?

I live in the Hampton Roads area of Virginia. This is often brought up when a hurricane approaches. Fortunately we seldom get hit and are now very complacent. The Lower Peninsula has two ways out – I-64 and US17. They approach gridlock when the tourists arrive. In an emergency evacuation they would also be gridlocked.
So far no one has come up with a solution.
